In PHP Pack() is a complicated way of doing the equivalent of this in
CF: toBinary(toBase64("my string"))
What's added by pack() beyond that CF example is a bunch of formatting
options for the input string like pad-with-spaces, pad-with-nulls, etc.
The "H" option he mentioned is described as "Hex string, high nibble
first". My guess would be "high nibble first" vs. "low nibble first"
(lowercase h) is describing unicode formatting - whether it's the high
bit or the low bit that indicates if the current byte is the beginning
of a double-byte character. I'm not certain of that though.
