First, thanks in advance for any insight on how to assist in making me a better Python programmer.
Here is my question. I work with a lot of sockets and most of them require hex data. I am usually given a string of data to send to the socket. Example: "414243440d0a" Is there a way in Python to say this is a string of HEX characters like Perl's pack? Right now I have to take the string and add a \x to every two values i.e. \x41\x42... Sometimes my string values are 99+ bytes in length. I did write a parsing program that would basically loop thru the string and insert the \x, but I was wondering if there was another or better way. Again, thanks in advance for any feedback. Mike.
