I guess you are talking about an email I send...

ASCII hex is something like "789ABCD2", so the hexadecimal numbers are
stored so you can print them directly (via _puts). That kind is used by the
Ti83 to store assembly programs. The Ti83 converts it to "normal hex" when
needed. ASCII hex takes 2 times the space of "normal hex".

Normal hex is stored just like machine code, for example: .db
$78,$9A,$BC,$D2
