Greetings to all Lua programmers,

I want to save a complete table, as it is, to a file. According to the
information at http://lua-users.org/wiki/SaveTableToFile, it is not
possible, because "Userdata, Functions, Metatables" will not be saved.
This is a serious restriction.

Can you identify any other language that supports saving those kinds of
things out-of-the-box? I can't think of any whatsoever.

Actually, I did not mean "out of the box". Any solution would be fine to me.
