>&#13;     The idea to this function was taken from Perl and all formatting
     codes work the same as there, however, there are some formatting
     codes that are missing such as Perl's "u" format code. The format
     string consists of format codes followed by an optional repeater
     argument. The repeater argument can be either an integer value or
     * for repeating to the end of the input data. For a, A, h, H the
     repeat count specifies how many characters of one data argument
     are taken, for @ it is the absolute position where to put the
     next data, for everything else the repeat count specifies how
     many data arguments are consumed and packed into the resulting
     binary string. Currently implemented are
