Where did I read, what, Fabien? That "&0" would be a hexadecimal representation?

>From the first two lines you posted from the referenced doc page. Take a look at the last example on each of those lines.

"&FFFF": Ampersand followed by a hexadecimal number. "0" is a hexadecimal number.
"&10BF332E": Again, ampersand followed by a hexadecimal number.

Or, maybe that's not what you were referring to about what I read.

And yes, as Tobi pointed out, the doc doesn't quite reflect the state of the source code.
