Please always reply to the group.
if your $var contains the string ff, you can print to decimail like this:
$var = ff;
$dec = hex($var);
print $dec;
or if you have $var contain an actual hex num string:
$x = 0xff;
print $x;
perl will print the dec value automatically.
even better you can use sprintf and pack, unpack to do these kind of things
$x = 0xff;
$dec = sprintf("%d", $x);
print $dec;
