Subject: C-x C-e on numbers
Date: Thu, 04 Dec 2014 10:56:10 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1XwYlG-0002j7-15@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
Currently, when evaluating a number, emacs will print the decimal,
octal, hexadecimal, and charachter of said number.
42 C-x C-e ==> 42 (#o52, #x2a, ?*)
It would be useful, if the output would also include the binary
representation of the number. Or at least somehow enable such
behaviour. I.e.,
42 C-x C-e ==> 42 (#b101010, #o52, #x2a, ?*)
It would also be useful to change the printed representation of a
number, so that the above would become,
#o52 C-x C-e ==> #x2a (#b101010, 42, #o52, ?*)
But this would probobly require some more work.
