Our discussions on the lack of Lua libraries has motivated me to start
releasing some of the pieces of a Lua project I've been working on.

So here's a little Lua utility I wrote:

  http://www.dekorte.com/Software/Lua/LuaPickle

Given a lua table it can write it to a persistant form (a string) which
can be stored on a disk or pushed across a network. And given that string
it can turn it back into a lua table. This works even if the table contains
a hierarcy of other tables. And even if there are loops in the links between
the tables. It doesn't work if any of the tables contain functions or 
userdata though.

Let me know if you find this usefull. I have a bunch of other Lua 
stuff I could put up.
