What I meant was that when the string was printed onto a text file, it showed lots of boxes that are usually associated with unknown characters...When I tried to work out w

Convert hexadecimal characters to ascii

Hi, I've got this weird problem where in some strings, parts of the string are in hexadecimal, or thats what I think they are. I'm not exactly sure...I get something like this: 's\x08 \x08Test!' from parsing a log file. From what I found on the internet, x08 is the backspace character but I'm s
