GetModeID only prints the screen mode ID in decimal form.

So you get numbers like 1086755888...

GetHexModeID prints the ID in hexadecimal style, too.

That makes the numbers a bit more memorizable (here 0x40c20050).


It's a bit larger than the original, but it's Y2K safe...


OK, now do what you want with it!
