The ISO 10206 equivalent of $10 is 16#10 (base#digits in general), which is a bit more typing, but IMHO it is much cleaner than the Borland syntax.
It's also ksh syntax.
And I never liked C or TP hex syntax - rather, &h10 or 10h (yes, you guess right on the first one if it starts with gw and ends with ...ic.exe)
