What is the method to convert hex numbers to text. For example 54 68 6f 6d 61 73 in text could be Thomas. I think I am mis-conceptualizing hex decimals with binaries and how they work.
From powershell I find it like this. Hint, I used the [Char]acter and Convert .NET classes.
$1=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('54',16)
$2=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('68',16)
$3=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('6f',16)
$4=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('6d',16)
$5=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('61',16)
$6=[Char][Convert]::ToUInt32('73',16)
$1+$2+$3+$4+$5+$6
Result
Thomas
In case you want to manipulate any other formats, find the syntax here.
