This form is similar to \fBA\fR, except that it scans the data from start
and terminates at the first null (C string semantics). For example,

\fBbinary scan\fR "abc\e000efghi" C* var1
.CE
will return \fB1\fR with \fBabc\fR stored in \fIvar1\fR.

The data is turned into a string of \fIcount\fR hexadecimal digits in
high-to-low order represented as a sequence of characters in the set
.QW 0123456789abcdef .
The data bytes are scanned in first to last
order with the hex digits being taken in high-to-low order within each
byte. Any extra bits in the last byte are ignored. If \fIcount\fR is
