So if you put the two ASCII characters 1A into a file

I'm sorry, that example should have been (of course) that
if you put 19 into the file then it should generate cert
serial 25 and increment the file to 1A. The pedagogical
principle was to hammer home the idea that it is in hex
format (and an even number of digits).
I refer to previous messages that I should not post
before noon...
