Problem using strings instead of LÖVE files

Thanks a lot for this little tool!

In the Readme you show that it's possible to use strings instead of LÖVE files:

local icodata = lovePE.extractIcon(exeString)
local success, newString = lovePE.replaceIcon(exeString,icoString)
local success, newString = lovePE.patchIcon(exeString,icoString)

--[[ Arguments:
exeString -> The source exe data as a string.
icoString -> The new ico data as a string.
newString -> The new patched exe data as a string.]]

However, when I try to do this, the output file is corrupted. It is just 214KB big, instead of the original exe which is about 4MB. After a bit of investigation, I suspect that there is something wrong with the function newStringFile(). In particular, I think this line needs to be removed:

   function file:write(d,s)
     if s then d = d:sub(1,s) end
>    if pos+#d > #str then d = d:sub(1,#str-pos) end
     
     str = str:sub(1,pos)..d..str:sub(pos+#d+1,-1)
     
     pos = pos + #d
    
     return #d
   end

Once that line is removed, I was able to produce a correctly patched exe.
