[newbie] Object>>asByteArray???

Hi all.

I want to turn an Object (which doesn't contain references other than a 
couple of strings, integers and so forth) into a ByteArray.

Is there a trivial way of doing this? I've been looking through the 
code. Magma has it's own rather scary looking set of classes for doing 
this. ImageSegments is one way of doing this, I guess. Object asString 
isn't quite what I want.

I just want something like
"(ByteArrayStream new: 1024) nextPut: myObject"
or something like that. Is there an easy way to do this?

Michael.
