Thanks for the binascii.hexlify tip. I was able to make it work but I did have to write a function to get it exactly the string I wanted. I wanted, for example, <b'\n\x00'> to display as <0x0A 0x00> or <b'!\xff(\xc0'> to display as <0x21 0xFF 0x28 0xC0>. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
