I _think_ the above code is correct, please verify
Self-contained example:
```d
import std.stdio;
import std.string;
void main() {
ubyte[8] b = [0x68, 0x65, 0x6C, 0x6C, 0x6F, 0x0A, 0x00,
0x00];
/* "hello\n\0\0" */
char[] s = fromStringz(cast(char*)b.ptr);
writefln("'%s, world'", s.strip);
s = cast(char[])b[0 .. $];
writefln("'%s, world'", s.strip);
}
```
Output:
```
@mono:~/2-coding/d-lang/misc$ ./p
'hello, world'
'hello
, world'
```
I'm not at my computer anymore, could you please replace the
`0x00` with `0x0A` and tell me if `strip` still doesn't work for
my solution?
I think the `fromstringz` is trimming the null bytes for you,
making the `\n` the last character, allowing `strip` to work.
