Ah never mind, after closer inspection is was something on my side of
the code that ruined the tuple unpacking. Also, I now understand (a
little) what the string meant.

6s = A string of 6 characters
3s = String with 3 characters
1c = For the blank character
B's = An unsigned char, any number I guess?
h = short integer. Whatever that is.

Either way, just answering myself so you don't have to explain it. :D
