C=a number in it, you'll need to use whatever command there is for sending
C=strings, or send it one character at a time manually if there isn't one
C=(which I doubt).

Well, midi messages are mainly written in hex codes. Thus it`s handiest to
just send hex. And I was thinking I couldn`t just do int($3c) as it somehow
didn`t work, but a quick try in a short program proves it does work.

And yes I just need to send the hex value and not the string.
