While grepping, I've found in base/node-ini.lua .... --[[ldx-- <p>Serializing nodes can be handy for tracing. Also, saving and loading node lists can come in handy as soon we are going to use external applications to process node lists.</p> --ldx]]-- ....
\starttext \setbox100=\vbox{Hi} \ctxlua{io.savedata('vbox.hi',nodes.serializebox(100,true, true))} Box reuse:\blank \box100 \blank \ctxlua{initt=loadfile('vbox.hi');initt();tex.box[100] = nodes.FromTableToNodeButItnotExists(t)} %%actually an empty box, of course \box100 \stoptext I was not able to find a "table2node" function ie nodes.FromTableToNodeButItnotExists(t) -- luigi
