- Table (`.tbl`) Files:
  - Table files are the serialized file form of a NeXtMidas table.
  - Tables can be saved to a table file using the `TABLE` command.
  - Tables can be loaded from a table file using the `TABLE` command.
    - Since tables are used so often in NeXtMidas, there is even a simple way to load a table from a table file:

          nM> res T:myTable myfiletab.tbl

  - Table files are editable in any standard text editor.
    - A sample table file (`myfile.tbl`):

          X=1
          Y=2
          INNER={
            Z=a string
            Q=100.2
          }

    - This table file can be loaded using the short-cut method shown above.

          nM> res T:myTable myfile.tbl
          nM> res/all myTable
            T: MYTABLE             = Table of 3 entries
            L:  X              = 1
            L:  Y              = 2
            T:  INNER          = Table of 2 entries
           8S:   Z             = a string
            D:   Q             = 100.2

    - An XML file can be loaded into a table as well (Since NeXtMidas 2.3.0)

          nM> res T:myTable nxm.sys.test.test_convert.xml
