This function returns a string which can then be stored or transferred to another data structure using the ds_list_read() function.
NOTE The returned string is not a human readable string, but rather a dump of the contents of the data-structure.
ds_list_write(id);
Argument | Type | Description |

ini_open("save.ini");
var str = ds_list_write(list);
ini_write_string("Lists", "0", str);
ds_list_clear(list);
ini_close();
The above code opens an ini file and then writes a string containing the information stored in the DS list indexed in the variable "list". The list is then cleared and the ini file closed.
