Hiya Keichi,

Thanks a lot for the library! Really sweet. I've just noticed that since 1.1.3 the zero-terminated string stuff is broken.

Code:

var Parser = require('binary-parser').Parser;
var StringOptions = {length: 99, zeroTerminated:true};

// Build an IP packet header Parser
var ipHeader = new Parser()
    .skip(1, StringOptions)
    .string("command", StringOptions)
    .string("username", StringOptions);

// Prepare buffer to parse.
var buf = new Buffer('0e757365726e616d6500526f6200', 'hex');

// Parse buffer and show result
console.log(ipHeader.parse(buf));

Output on 1.1.2:

$ npm install; node test.js
binary-parser@1.1.2 node_modules\binary-parser
{ command: 'username', username: 'Rob' }

Output on 1.1.3+

$ npm install; node test.js
binary-parser@1.1.3 node_modules\binary-parser
{ command: 'username\u0000Rob\u0000', username: '' }

Don't have the time to look (yet) but maybe I can check it out lateron.
