Hello Taco,
thanks for your answer! (I mentioned Hans, because he is the author of
syst-con.tex)
Now I understand the meaning of the " character: interpret the following
number as hex-value. With this knowledge, my macro becomes as easy as this:
\def\HexToNum#1{\number"#1}
since I only need uppercase hex-values.
Thanks for your enlightenment!
Cheers, Peter
