C help wanted

[becker at uiucdcsb.UUCP]

 i was wondering if any of you C hackers out there might be able
to help me on this:

 i have a program that generates a rather complex model of an object
(this is for computer graphics) that is composed of records. each record
contains data and pointers to other records. this entire data structure
is irregular. how can i save this structure in a file so that it can
be used by another program? keep in mind that this structure is not
tree-like in any way; it more closely resembles something a spider did
under influence of drugs.

 thanks,
 craig becker
