Stripping characters from windows clipboard with win32clipboard from excel

    Looks like Excel is rounding up its clipboard allocation to the next 
64K. There used to be good reasons for trying to leave some extra room 
on the clipboard and avoid reallocating the block but I thought that was 
over a long time ago.

    To strip NULs off the end of the string use s.rstrip('\0')
