Cool, I'll try it out. But I still don't get how the functions can tell
the difference between an ending 0x80 and one that is *part* of data
(perhaps coincidentally followed by lots of nulls plus something that
could be a length word, but all being just parts of a 64-byte binary
data block)
Thanks,
