Subject: [ruby-talk:02375] Marshal: Want string out, but want depth specified?

@encoded = [Marshal.dump(@decoded, , depth)].pack("m")

gives a syntax error,

@encoded = [Marshal.dump(@decoded, nil, depth)].pack("m")

doesn't work, the second param needs to be type IO

@encoded = [Marshal.dump(@decoded, depth)].pack("m")

doesn't work, the second param needs to be type IO

How do I miss out the second parameter to get a string, and yet specify
the depth?
