💖 MODHEX(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the modhex page from the YubiKey C Library Manual — yes it's a real thing, and yes it's adorable once you get it. buckle up 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

modhex — convert data to/from modhex encoding

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

modhex [-d] [-h] DATA

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically modhex takes your data DATA and flips it between modhex, binary, and hex. that's the whole vibe. it's giving converter energy. 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

the string DATA is the data to convert — that's the thing you're handing over, no cap.

• -d — decode data instead of encoding it. the default is to encode, so if you don't say anything, she's encoding. 🫶
• -h — use hex encoding for all non-modhex data. literally all of it. ✨

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

ModHex encode ASCII-string "test":

modhex test

Decode ModHex data "ifhgieif" into ASCII string:

modhex -d ifhgieif

ModHex encode hex-encoded data "b565716f":

modhex -h b565716f

Decode ModHex data "nghgibhv" and print hex-encode data:

modhex -d -h nghgibhv
