everything as needed.
Nevertheless, I do have zeroes in the buffer, so:
```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 = cast(char[])b[0 .. $];
writefln("'%s, world'", s.strip("\n\x00"));
}
```
much better than my initial
```d
char[] s = cast(char[])ioCtx.buf[0 ..
strlen(cast(char*)ioCtx.buf.ptr) - 1];
```
