[racket] reading null-terminated byte-string?

There are many ways to read bytes (and I assume you mean 'byte' not 'char' or 'string'). Here is how to read a complete line: 

Welcome to Racket v6.0.0.1.
> (read-bytes-line)
#""
> (read-bytes-line)"hello world, how is david"
#"\"hello world, how is david\""


The definitive reference is at http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/Byte_and_String_Input.html

If this is not helpful, try to ask the question again. -- Matthias
