Village store
You are standing in the village shop. Commands here include
'buy <item>','sell <item>' and 'list'. A clerk is normally
here attending to customers.
Exits: <west>
clerk
>list
The clerk says,'Here is what we have in stock:'
oil: 0000_0006
sword: 0000_004B
cleaver: 0000_00B4
The clerk says,'Take your time.'
Gold: 0000_00C8
>
Numbers are stored in eax.
I'm sure my bank would love me if I said,"Yes, I'd like 0000_00C8 coins and 0000_004B dollar bills, please." :) hehe

Hi paul
>...they are a bit off for normal humans to understand.
Not really, I like the Hex form more :)
Any way U can use :
stdout.puti32(any_Value_of_type_32bits);
stdout.puti16(any_Value_of_type_16bits);
stdout.puti16(any_Value_of_type_8bits);
All kind simple in- & out-puts are in the Example Demo "stdoutDemo.hla".
That's the Example packag in HLA..
Regards..

So I should be using:
stdout.puti32(what_ever_value);
??
I am assuming "puti32" places the value in the range of a 32-bit common integer, correct? If so, then my hex problems are cured. :)

By default, HLA believes values in EAX to be of type dword, and by default, HLA's standard library routines (like stdout.put) print dword values in hexadecimal.
There are two solutions: (1) use the data type specific output routines (e.g., stdout.puti32) or (2) cast EAX to a different type. (1) you've already seen (in a previous reply). Here's
how to do (2):
stdout.put( "EAX = ", (type uns32 eax), nl );
