gollark: If you know of a serialization library which *does* and which emits compact output, please tell me.
gollark: I'm just using a boring old JSON library, okay? I don't see why I'd want to serialize that to tapes.
gollark: It has four functions: `write(tape_drive, data, ignore_out_of_space)`, `write_string(tape_drive, string, ignore_out_of_space)`, `read(tape_drive)`, `read_string(tape_drive)`.
