%D When the number of conversions grew, it did no longer make
%D sense to spread them over multiple files. So, instead of 
%D defining these in \type {font-ini}, we now have a dedicated 
%D module. 

%D \macros 
%D   {lchexnumber,uchexnumber,lchexnumbers,uchexnumbers}
%D
%D In addition to the uppercase hex conversion, as needed in 
%D math families, we occasionally need a lowercase one, for 
%D instance when we want to compose gbsong fontnames.
%D
%D The ugly indirectness is needed to get rid of \TEX\ 
%D induced spaces and \type {\relax}'s.

%D This conversion macro produces raw characters. We have to
%D construct the macro in a special way to avoid problems with 
%D characters with special meanings. So, we revert to the 
%D lowercase conversion trick to bypass \TEX's input parser.
