Re: Char to hex

I have a non-blank char field that shows up as blanks in an e-mail. I'm thinking the field could contain unprintable characters, so I'd like to include the hex value as well in the e-mail. How do I go about getting the hex value?

dump(a); will give a snapshot of all the variables. I sometimes use
this for catastrophic situations I didn't expect inside a MONITOR block.
If I have multiple dumps, I'll tag each one so I can tell which spooled
file came from what part of the program.

dump(a) 'credit check open()';

I find that the code I work with is... intertwined enough that knowing
the value of one variable is never enough, so a dump is better for me.
