cmp -b but in decimal, -v but in character format

The diff info page still says address@hidden

The cmp info page says

`-b'
`--print-bytes'
     Print the differing characters.  Display control characters as a
     `^' followed by a letter of the alphabet and precede characters
     that have the high bit set with `M-' (which stands for "meta").

`-l'
`--verbose'
     Print the (decimal) byte numbers and (octal) values of all
     differing bytes.

OK, but there's no way to have the former use the format of the latter
or visa versa.
