At last I found the answer to my question.
{The change is in bold}
Code:
Quote:
BEGIN {
FS=OFS=";"
PAT_percent="%"
# 'LENGTH of the fields'
split("-10 -10 -8 -10", arrL, " ")
# 'TYPE of the fields"
split("s s d d", arrT, " ")
}

{
for(i=1; i <= NF; i++) {
format=sprintf("%c%c%d%s%s", PAT_percent, (arrT[i] == "s") ? "-" : "0", arrL[i], arrT[i], (i<NF) ? OFS : "\n")
printf(format, $i)
}
}
This will align your output to left.

srec_spasm(5)							File Formats Manual						     srec_spasm(5)

NAME

       srec_spasm - SPASM file format

DESCRIPTION

       This  format  is  the  output  of the Paralax SPASM assembler (now defunct, I'm told).  The file contains two columns of 16-bit hexadecimal
       coded values.  The first column is the word address, the second column is the word data.

       By default, SRecord treats this is big-endian data (the most significant byte first).  If you want little endian order, use  the  -spasm-le
       argument instead.

   Size Multiplier
       In general, binary data will expand in sized by approximately 5.0 times when represented with this format (5.5 times in Windows).

EXAMPLE

       Here  is  an  example SPASM file.  It contains the data "Hello, World[rq] to be loaded at bytes address 0x0100 (but remember, the file con-
       tents are word addressed).
