Hi,

and here the next question... :-)

I try to assimilate Python's `StringIO' class to Ruby. Now I want to
derive `StringIO' from `IO'. So that

	StringIO.new.is_a? IO

But now my problem is, that `IO#new' want to have a filedescriptor as
parameter. But I cannot deliver such one.

What I need, is to write a `StringIO#new' that doesn't need to call
`IO#new'! Could someone give me some advice?

Thanks in advance,
\cle
