Thank you. The original need to do that appeared because I needed to handle 
files with comments. After some searching I was able to read file (with 
comments information), then write file from scratch again. It works, but seems 
to be too complex - a file may be big, and I may need to add just a few 
comments.

I'm reading Tara sources and I suspect the structure is available - or at least 
could be made available with not too much effort - when the data is read (how 
otherwise the data is obtained?). But so far I can't reach the goal.
