A C64 systems routine at $bdcd prints the decimal equivalent of a two byte integer. Here is how to use that code:
lda $#0d
jsr $ffd2
lda #$c0
ldx #$00
jsr $bdcd
rts
for the C128, substitute $8e32 at bank 15 for $bdcd. I've never had to do it but I'm sure that buried in the routine at $bdcd is a routine for converting 4 nibble hexidecimal to decimal text digits. I think the routines suppreses leading zeroes.
