For what purpose? Depending on the answer I have different suggestions.
My current addon does this every time it's run (
GSA) -- it is the only way to get data from "in game" to an external program. Mine creates a database.
depending on the addon you are trying to do this with I could just give you my 100% working subroutine and with a few minor changes it would work as a VBS.
It's basically - open .lua file
read line by line
trim spaces - check if it's something you are trying to keep
if yes add it to a string + ","
decide when to insert a line break
repeat until EOF
when done write all to a .csv
there are certain tricks to making it more efficient like
If InStr(line, "},") > 0 or If InStr(line, "{,") > 0 then
ignore and read next line
