// remove bytes belonging to the current character from the buffer
buffer = buffer.slice(available, buffer.length);

// get the character that was split
charStr = this.charBuffer.slice(0, this.charLength).toString(this.encoding);

How does buffer.slice work?

Buffer.slice() creates a new Buffer instance that references the same memory as the original Buffer but with the specified start and end indices.

This means that changes made to one buffer are reflected in the other since they share the same underlying memory. However, the Buffer.slice() method allows you to work on a portion of the original buffer without modifying the original buffer directly.

Ai Example

const buffer1 = Buffer.from("Hello");
const buffer2 = buffer1.slice(0, 2); // create a new buffer from the first two characters of buffer1
console.log(buffer2.toString()); // output: 'He'

In the example above, we create a new Buffer object named buffer1 that contains the string "Hello". Then, we create a new buffer named buffer2 using the buffer.slice() method, which extracts the first two characters from buffer1 and returns a new buffer object. Finally, we convert buffer2 to a string and log it to the console, which should output "He".
