The format-string "%02s" should make a '0' instead of ' '
as filling, IMHO.

IMHO "%2s" should make a string of at least two chars
length, fillingup with ' ' on the left side.
And "%0s" should make it with a filling-char '0'
instead of filling-chars ' '.

The inner sprintf makes hex from int and the outer
makes two-char-string instead of one-char-string.
Or how to make hex-output with filling '0' instead
of ' ' for two-char length strings?
Would a "%00X" work?!
Ciao,
