yeah it was - but of course I really wanted the next 2 digits as well.... I'm hoping to make more than 100 units really! pardon me for over-simplifying my question. I wonder if it would be useful/helpful to allow the user to optionally over-ride the number base for reading and separately for writing by setexpr. That would extend it's usefulness without requiring an extra command or breaking any existing code say setenv setexpr_in 10 setenv setexpr_out 16 If I wrote a patch would you look favourably on it?
