So, this buffer is enough to debug print only up to 32 > bytes. Hence %*ph replacement won't cut output earlier than requested. I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you are trying to explain. Moreover= , with the "0x%02X " in the sprintf followed by the strcat, the msg buffer c= an print 128/5 values (25 hex values). The %*ph replacement can print up to 64 bytes, so I don't see any problem here. > > ... > > > + for (j =3D i + 1; par->init_sequence[j] >=3D 0= ; j++); > > Why is i + 1 initial for the j?

Yes, it was the first idea but I prefer this method since we save aritmeth= ic operations. In other words, if I use what you suggest, the index for par->init_sequence is calculated as a "sum" every iteration. But if the performance is not an issue and you believe that the above is more clear, = I have no problem. What do you prefer? Thanks, Len
