I don't understand what you want.

First I thought you were asking about a source-code pretty printer,
but that can't be it, surely no source code pretty printer is going to
mangle $a into 97!

Then I thought you wanted a replacement for io:fwrite(), but that
doesn't make sense either since $a is exactly the same thing as 97 by
the time it's an argument. But you know that. So you must want
something else again. But what?
