There is one other discrepancy in Pascal: it specifies something for the binary format as well: {"", "%", "b", ""}, /* Binary format info */ as opposed to C's {"", "", "", ""}, /* Binary format info */ Pascal appears to be the only language that uses something other than this latter format for binary.
