Dear all,
I save a table “tfList” using table.save in Lua:
\startluacode
...
table.save(“tempList.lua”,tfList)
...
\stopluacode
And I call it in MetaFun using a method explained in the MetaFun book.
\startMPcode
lua("MP = { } MP.data = table.load('tempList.lua')") ;
…
\stopMPcode
However, I found that whenever I save “tfList”, table contents are
appended to the file “tempList.lua” at the end which cause a trouble.
I want the tempList.lua contains the new table only.
I search the method to do that, but I can’t find it.
The only way is to change the file name each time which is not good to
make a macro.
Is there a way to clear the contents in the tempList.lua before I save
another table?
so you add to that list?
