Assigning Hex number

[David McFarlane]

Just a bit of clarification for those who don't go back to the days 
of BASIC on Apple II and Commodore 64:  The "%" in

     Const MYPORT% = &H4000

is a type-declaration character that declares the constant MYPORT as 
type Integer.  In newer dialects you can achieve the same effect with

     Const MYPORT as Integer = &H4000

depending on your own programming style.
