Using Conversion Specifications
You can use a conversion specification within a format string to specify how the value of a
field should be formatted. To format a field, append the field name in the text format list
after the format string. Include one field name for each conversion specification in the
list. The conversion specifications are applied to the field names from left to right. You
can specify the following conversion specifications
%c A single character. The base type in Neuron C must be char, int, or enum.
%d A signed or unsigned decimal number (based on the signedness defined in the
type file). The base type must be a Neuron C char, int, long, bitfield, or enum.
%f A floating point number. The base type must be a Neuron C char, int, long,
float, or enum.
%m An enumeration. The base type must be an enumerated list. If an
enumeration does not exist for the value, the format string is processed as if
it were %d.
%s A null-terminated string. The base type must be an array of 8-bit data.
String data must be null terminated.
%x An unsigned hexadecimal integer. The size is determined from the type file.
The data are always treated as unsigned. The base type must be char, int,
