Sorry to ask such a simple question, but I've been through the whole
documentation without success.
Is it possible to print a number from, say base 10, to base 2? For
example I want to know how 255 looks in base 2, how do I do that? I know
how to print any number in base 10 with $[16#ff], but the reverse?
Thanks.

% typeset -i 2 base2
% base2=255
% print $base2

I would like to know direct way as well. Probably, additional flag, such
as
${(b2)foo}
where value is printed in base 2 if result is integer value. Nice for
arrays as well.
