Title: cleaned output stream by removing with strip

While reading the delimited length in the stream output, there are more characters than expected, as 'new line' characters are added. Thus the delimited length never is a digit, the status is not processed and we are in an almost endless loop. Cleaning the string with a .strip() removes those characters and everything works as expected.
