Could I get the name of the beta testers from v5.5??? grin

I'm ok for not changing behaviors because script rely on it.
For example, recently you changed the behavior of "alias join { join $2 }", which should technically be written as "alias join { !join $2 }"
This was known to anyone helping on IRC, billions of script are misusing this and indeed a lot of them started to broke. After you reverted the change, nobody complained because the (current) 'wrong' behavior is not an annoyance to anyone, it doesn't prevent functionnality, mIRC is/was already guessing that it should call the built-in alias in this case.

But here, it is breaking functionnality and let's be honnest, this behavior wasn't requested, this is not a feature request: there is no logic behind changing /sockread -n &binvar to add these \0, it's a bug plain and simple.
Khaled, if you think this is a bug, please make this one a try, change the behavior to what it should be and let's see if it breaks any script (you could always revert back the change in the next version!)
