What will happend it i run apps that rely on this behaviour (cmd.exe) on 
Windows? The stuff past the nullterm on windows will likely contain 
garbage. Checking for magic chars past the windows nullchar ("ros" etc.) 
might solve this tho.

You must also be sure to not read more that 128 chars, since its 
possible that the string past the windows string does not contain any 
nullchars (on Windows), and we might read out of bounds. The magic chars 
will solve this problem also tho.

Functions/macros that check for the magic chars etc. and return a char* 
if valid/null ptr. if not would be nice;-)

Gunnar
