Binwalk can't be launched from python with matryoshka depth=1

[0xfede7c8]

for module in binwalk.scan((pth), signature=True, extract=True, matryoshka=True, deph=1):
    #......

This throws the help print on stdout. When I change depth to 2, it works. I'm really needing this, quick response is apreciated. I can fix it with a bit of guidance.

As a workaround I changed the matryoshka default value in extractor.py

Option(short='M',
           long='matryoshka',
           kwargs={'matryoshka': 1},
           description='Recursively scan extracted files'),

Hmmmm, I'm not getting this issue. I tried to reproduce it with this code:

import sys
import binwalk

for module in binwalk.scan(sys.argv[1], signature=True, extract=True, matryoshka=True, depth=1):
    for result in module.results:
        print (result.description)

But it seems to be working fine for me. What version of binwalk do you have installed?

[0xfede7c8]

Binwalk v2.1.2-de42daf

Maybe my concept is wrong. Depth of 1 means that after first extraction it will try to extract again or the first extraction is considered depth=1 and second depth=2?

A depth of 1 would be the same as running just --extract and no --matryoshka specified.

Ok, thanks, so my whole point was invalid, even if you can on not reproduce it. Thanks for the help! I love this tool and think is one of the most useful things created for reverse engineering.
