  • $\begingroup$ Your usage wipes all the existing input aliases out of the InputAliases option. Perhaps you could update to append this the existing list of input aliases. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 9, 2017 at 17:32

    $\begingroup$ Humm, there seems to be an issue with this solution when the hex numbers do not begin with a character. It works for f6 but not 6f. Is there a way to fix this? Well, you can just do "6f" in these cases. Perhaps best to always use the quotes? $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 9, 2017 at 17:36

    $\begingroup$ @Edmund I added a version that starts the hex number with x so that mixtures of integers and letters can be added on. Then the interpretation function drops the x and converts to an integer. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 9, 2017 at 18:14
