This is a block of binary data, hence the io_read_data instead of
io_read_text. It's an array of 1-byte values (the item size is last argument in
io_read_data) which can be converted to numerics using the Tcl "binary scan"
command.
Eg:
binary scan $conf_vals c* str
puts $str
=> 37 42 46 50 55 59 64 68 68 73 73 74 ...
The these can be looped around using a for loop or foreach. Eg:
foreach val $str {
puts val=$val
}
