I’d like to make a simple application which shows one element from a list on screen at a time (using curses). The user navigates left and right with keys. They can close the application with q.
The application should remember where they were when they reopen the application. This is a simple question, but is the most standard application architecture to store application-state related information in a single file called “application.data”?
You should serialize the application data and store it in a file. you can try using xml or json. the file extension should be "application.dat" not "application.data"
What is a standard way to save a location in a list between application runs?
