     Numbers used in CodeView commands represent integer constants.
     These constants are entered in the current input radix (base).
     When you are using the FORTRAN expression evaluator, CodeView
     recognizes any explicitly specified radix between 2 and 36
     inclusive, as in 20#2G.
 
     Syntax             Description
 
     digits             Current radix
     [radix]#digits     Specified radix (default 16)
 
     The FORTRAN radix specifiers can be used to override the current
     radix. Note that a hexadecimal number can be entered in two ways.
     For example, 3F hex could be entered as either #3F or 16#3F.
 
     The default radix for CodeView is decimal. However, you can use
     the Radix command to specify an octal or hexadecimal radix.
     See: ◄Radix (N) Command►
 
     When the current radix is hexadecimal, it is possible to enter an
     argument that could be interpreted either as an identifier or as a
     number. CodeView resolves the ambiguity by first searching for a
     symbol (identifier) with that name. If no symbol is found,
     CodeView interprets the value as a number. If you want to enter a
     number that overrides an existing symbol, use the hexadecimal
     format (#digits).
 
     For example, if you enter ABC as an argument when the program
     contains a variable or function named ABC, CodeView interprets the
     argument as the symbol. If you want to enter ABC as a number,
     enter it as #ABC.
