Convert hex to string

[Larry Bates]

It contains non-printing and non-ASCII characters so it can't be
printed lie you want.  The best Python can do is to show you
the hexadecimal of those bytes (as it has done).  Printable ASCII
characters lie in the range 32 decimal (20 hex) to 125 decimal
(7F hex).  Those characters in that range are shown properly.

Example:  There is no printable ASCII character for the first
character which is \x01.  My ASCII table shows that this
character represents an ASCII SOH (start of heading) character.
