Martin,

I've incorporated your feedback into the Language Reference, but I'd
like clarification on one section. What do you mean by "Also mention %p
and binary formats here" ?

Here is a description of %p for standard C:
"Pointer to a pointer. Inputs a memory address in the same fashion of the
%p type produced by the printf function."

Is there a difference in SystemTap's handling of %p that you want me to
call out, or is there a special usage case that you have in mind?

Is there a difference in SystemTap's handling of printing binary streams
versus C standard syntax? Thanks.

Regards,
Robb
