/sys$common/syshlp/HELPLIB.HLB  —  System Services, $FAO
    Converts a binary value into an ASCII character string in
    decimal, hexadecimal, or octal notation; returns the character
    string in an output string; and inserts variable character-string
    data into an output string.

    The Formatted ASCII Output with List Parameter ($FAOL) service
    provides an alternate method for specifying input parameters when
    calling the $FAO system service.

    On Alpha and Integrity server systems, this service accepts 64-
    bit addresses.
