how to convert binary to string?

[sonet]

ex.
convert "\x00\x0E" to '\x00\x0E'

 

[Jürgen Exner]

ex.
convert "\x00\x0E" to '\x00\x0E'

So you have a character and you want the ASCII (or whatever encoding) code
point?
See "perldoc -f ord"

Although, that's not what _I_ would call converting binary to string (see
subject line). That sounds more like you got a number and you want its
binary representation as a string. For that see "perldoc -f sprintf"

ex.
convert "\x00\x0E" to '\x00\x0E'

$ perl -le'$_ = "\x00\x0E"; s/(.)/ sprintf q[\x%02X], ord $1 /seg; print'
\x00\x0E
