Converting a string of one char into the ASCII equivalent?

I've been looking for a good way to convert a 1 length string into a signed
byte equivalent. Unfortunately the string library functions for converting
a string into a number, of course only work with string representations of a
number. Thus if the string I have was "\300" then the atoi(), long(), and
int() functions all complain that the string isn't a number.
Is there a function which will give me the signed byte equivalent of the 1
char string?
