Hi @maxWiklund

I had a nuke script to debug recently and needed to be able to inspect how nuke was building its node stack, which reminded me that your parser existed and did a good job on managing the stack.

I also wanted to be able to see how the .nk related to the node graph, so I quickly mashed the nkview with https://github.com/JorgeHI/NkScriptEditor from @JorgeHI for a proof of concept, which you can see in my fork https://github.com/herronelou/nuke_parser:

It's super rough right now, it only works in "debugging mode" where I can parse the script node by node, but if there's some interest I'm keen to clean it up and integrate it a bit more.

I was wondering if you had plans to where you want to take nkview?

    Hi @herronelou At the moment I don't really have a long term plan for the project. One thing I would like to be able to do is to save .nk files. Allow users to modify or generate .nk files without a nuke session.

    Right now I don't have the time or the energy unless this feature is requested at work.

    With kind regards,
    Max Wiklund.

    Okay. I've added editing saving the nk script (via text editor) this weekend, but still a bit buggy so I haven't committed yet. I'm not really planning to add generating from scratch, with my current iteration. I was asking just so I don't go miles away from where you want the tool to be, so that maybe we can merge back to your repo.
