I forgot to post what I am doing:
Here is how I try to use it. Is it OK. ?
dofile('luatraverse.lua')
a=12
b={}
b["test_key"]=a
traverse( countreferences(a) )

Hi,
Here is the tool. You can implement a function that gives you the
information you want and then call the function traverse passing your
function as a parameter. As an example, you can look at the functions
'countreferences' and 'findallpaths'. But if these functions already gives
you all the information you want... well.. that's better =)
But it hasn't been fully tested yet. Please, report me if you find any bugs.
Thanks,
Alexandra.

You can do that in Lua itself, using some reflexive facilities. I
guess
someone in the list did some tool for this. A student of mine also
wrote such tool (to traverse all live objects of a state). If she is
not in the list, you may contact her directly:
