You can't combine "%x" and "%m" as such. But let's try scanning: <hansl> strings S = defarray("0x01", "0xff", "0xea", "0x22") matrix m = {} sscanf(S, "%m", m) print m </hansl> Output: ? print m m (4 x 1)     1   255   234    34 So it "just works" without requiring "%x", so long as the hex strings are identified as such via the "0x" prefix.
