Thanks Hernán.

Just for completeness: theres Object>>serializeToFileNamed: as a “shorthand”.

Cheers,
Max

Hi guys,

Frequently I need to serialize contents from an inspector/explorer for 
later work or because image cannot work with big data sets.

Do you find yourself doing this from an inspector?

FLSerializer serialize: self toFileNamed: 'MyBigArrayOrString.FL'

Is there a reason for not having a "Serialize" menu entry in the Raw 
palette?
On the other side, from the File Browser a "Materialize" could be 
added for .FL files.


What do you think?

Cheers,

Hernán

Sure. And as you said, I would serialize the contents (the object being
inspected) instead of the inspector. Because the inspector may reach UI
elements and lots of stuff. Or... serialize the inspector, but be sure to
use Fuel provided hooks to cut the graph to be traversed that you know that
it may bring lot of unneeded stuff.

Good idea.

I think this already exists, but the extension should be .fuel (just .FL is to 
simple).
