very simple RPC client in python

[tcatm]

I found this (unfinished) code on my harddisk. It's basically a replacement for the built-in RPC client in bitcoind. host/port/user/pass is currently hardcoded.

I got over-excited seeing the title.

How comes you made a wrapper for bitcoind? Seems a bit superfluous :p Thanks for sharing.

btw, I improved ServiceProxy. You should use my version, https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/API_tutorial_%28JSON-RPC%29#Python

Reasons I wrote this:
* works across network without bitcoind binary
* makes testing RPC features easy
* could be enhanced to pretty print listtransactions or listaccounts
* could support user confirmation on sendfrom ("Are you sure you want to send 1000 BTC to 1Hs53...? (y/N)")
