Actually this convention is widely used. After all, strtol is part of the standard C library and has been forever: strtol(): POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C89, C99 SVr4, 4.3BSD. > The manual page does use several '0x' prefixed values but does not seem > to call out octal values or the implicit conversions. Yeah, could be easily added into the doc...
