Problem

The custom formatters example reads:

debug('this is hex: %h', new Buffer('hello world'))
//   foo this is hex: 68656c6c6f20776f726c6421 +0ms

Two things are wrong:

1. new Buffer(...) is deprecated since Node.js 6; the modern equivalent is Buffer.from(...).
2. The shown output ends with 21 (the hex of !), which is not part of the input string 'hello world'. Buffer.from('hello world').toString('hex') is 68656c6c6f20776f726c64.

Solution

Use Buffer.from and drop the stray 21 so the comment matches the actual formatter output.

Verification

Buffer.from('hello world').toString('hex')
// '68656c6c6f20776f726c64'
