Have you ever spent precious time converting something like "0xde, 0xad,\r\n0xbe, 0xef" to "\xde\xad\xbe\xef"?

If so, then xer is for you:

This is also my first somewhat useful #Rust project, so be gentle <3

With this, "Releasing from GitHub Actions" officially goes to my Cursed list: this time I spent 16 commits to get it right :P

@buherator thank you

@buherator huh, that's a conversion that rax2 doesn't support ootb.

@buherator noice!

@stf Turns out it's surprisingly easy to create "liberal" parsers with the nom crate!

@buherator cool! I hate to do this, but you might want to look at my rsbkb project: https://github.com/trou/rsbkb/
which includes related conversion/encoding tools.

@trou Looks pretty useful! In fact I've always wondered what made Cyber Chef so popular when the shell is *right there*. I also look for strengths/weaknesses of different tools (another similar one is rax2) as inspiration, so the more I see, the better!
