Not if it is followed by a colon (:) it isn't. Anyway, whatever you 
decide what the final format should be, it needs to be the same 
regardless of which file it appears in. In other words, is it "A", "0A" 
(00000A too?) or "0xA" (or any of these?)? I need clarity.

It was your idea to put the "0x" in front of these numbers, not mine, 
so, stop complaining! Whatever you decide the format should be let me 
know so that I could test it.
