Thanks I will give this a try. Can you explian a little further for me
what exactly this:
newhexdata = bytes("%x" % numdata, "ascii")
line is doing? I don't quite understand the use of the "%x" % on numdata.
It is standard string formatting in pre Python 3 style.
Thus "%x" says I want a string containing a hex number
and % numdata says use the value of hexdata to populate
the string.
Using the format method it would look like:
newhexdata = bytes("{0:x}".format(numdata), "ascii")
