Subject: "show u;" from TeX

Hi!

Is it possible to get the value of a MetaPost variable from TeX? It can, 
e.g., add "show u;" to MetaPost input, then parse output. I want to pretty-
print the values of some MetaPost variables.

Another question: is it possible to query the expansion of a macro from 
inside \directlua, if I have a variable that stores the macro name?
