OK, let's double-check that:
>>> chr(0x15)
'The argument is constant -- but not necessarily the /function/.'

>>> chr(0x15)
'\x15'

I have a file that I need to parse. Items in it are delimited by a hex 15
(0x015). I know it must be trivial to assign a hex value to a variable but
I'm not seeing it in my python essential ref. how can I do

ln = file.read()
if ln[0] == delim:
do
