Format characters have the following meaning; the conversion between
C and Python values should be obvious given their types:

Notes:
\begin{description}
\item[(1)]
The \character{I} conversion code will convert to a Python long if
the C \ctype{int} is the same size as a C \ctype{long}, which is
typical on most modern systems. If a C \ctype{int} is smaller than
a C \ctype{long}, an Python integer will be created instead.
\end{description}
A format character may be preceded by an integral repeat count;
e.g.\ the format string \code{'4h'} means exactly the same as
