I was playing with turnstep's single pixel gif generator, when I hit this error:

Character in "c" format wrapped

This is a new one on me, and I can't find it in The Camel. Can anyone enlighten me? The amended code in question is:

    print "Content-length: 43\nContent-type: image/gif\n\n";
    printf ("GIF89a\1\0\1\0%c\0\0%c%c%c\0\0\0%s,\0\0\0\0\1\0\1\0\0%c%c
+%c\1\0;",144,0,0,0,pack("c8",33,249,4,5,16,0,0,0),2,2,4);

I assume it's in the pack statement somewhere, but pack is scary voodoo to me :)
