save a list to a file

[Daniel33]

Hi,

I want to save a list to a file.    The list consists of tuples which
consist of integers, booleans, and integer lists.

I know from Ullman's book how to save simple values to a file.
Well, I can write functions which save lists and tuples
member by member,  but this is a bit tedious.

Is there a simple solution for this problem?

Best regards, Daniel

There isn't any builtin mechanism for serializing data structures
to a file.  For simple data, I usually write something by hand, but
for more complicated structures I use JSON files, which are supported
by the SML/NJ Library, or ASDL (http://sourceforge.net/projects/asdl/).
