Convert variable directly into a string (no ASCII)

[Justin Rajewski]

Hello,

I need to print variables out over serial, however I need them to not be
in ASCII, ie if the variable is 5 then print 5 not "5".

The function that writes to the serial port requires a string and I can
send non-variables out with the string "/x05" for 5.

Is this even possible?

Thanks,
Justin
