Hi,

I'm reading in a WORD (2 bytes) from a binary file. I can display the
Hex format of that value without a problem, but I would also like to
display the String value of that WORD variable. It's the first 2 bytes
of a file, which contains the "magic number" of the file.

I would like my program to output the following:

-----------------
Header Section
  header.ID    (5348h = "HS")
  ...
-----------------
