definitely my bad wording since I mislead both of you :)

I just thought that something out of the box to do this would be nice

String#pad and String#pad!

data.pad!(n)	#pad data to next 2^n boundary

or maybe powers of two are two restrictive than make n actually mean that make the strings 
length a multiple of n.
