cut-trailing-bytes

A tool to cut trailing bytes, default cut trailing NULL(0x00 in hex) bytes

Example

$ echo "hello" > hello_00

$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1k count=1 >> hello_00
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
1024 bytes (1.0 kB, 1.0 KiB) copied, 0.0031857 s, 321 kB/s

$ hexdump -C hello_00
00000000  68 65 6c 6c 6f 0a 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  |hello...........|
