I don't know how that crept it.
what does the [ ] you've inserted here mean? It looks like a markdown
todo-list "checkbox", maybe it was inserted by mistake?
It is not in the markdown original, so I'm not sure how/why it is
happening.

+The octets C0 and C1 above denote the checksum.
This seems like a mistake. C0 and C1 could be specific hexadecimal
octets (decimal 12), whereas "c0" and "c1" here are intended to be
placeholders for the checksum. This is a bit confusing, maybe it would
be better to use s0 and s1 (s for "sum") so that it's clear that it
isn't hex?
Good points! I think using s0 and s1 is the best suggestion so far.
Done via commit 27e70ca.
