Hi All,

I have a string:

1BB67AE85A

which has the hexadecimal values I want to
add to a buffer:

No such method 'base' for invocant of type 'Str'.  Did you mean any of
these: 'Bag', 'Date', 'Hash', 'are', 'asec', 'hash', 'take'?
   in block <unit> at <unknown file> line 1

In other words, I want to set $y to
    0x1B 0xB6 0x7A 0xE8 0x5A

How do I do this?

Many thanks,
