Q.  How do I convert a String into its equivalent ASCII hex characters?

A.  Here's a function that efficiently does that:

	String stringToHex(final String in) {
		StringBuilder out = new StringBuilder(in.length() * 2);
		
		for (int i = 0; i < in.length(); i++) {
			out.append(Integer.toHexString(in.charAt(i)));
		}
		
		return out.toString();
	}
