this works, the correct output is presented. But how can I get the length of the char in the cstruct PPP?
Sounds like the string is not null terminated, so you really need to specify the length. If you want to inspect the struct type definition you can use something like this:
(slot-count (get-slot-info 'ppp 'name)) => 32
Anyway, Frode Fjeld's library "Binary-Types" might be a better solution for your problem: http://www.cliki.net/Binary-types.
