Re: FX2 FW: conversion from Intel HEX to DVB USB "hexline"

[Antti Palosaari <crope@iki.fi>]

Many thanks!

Actually, I was just started to write similar Python script! You got 
maybe 15min late but still 15min before mine was ready :)

Format was nothing more than convert ASCII hex values to binary bytes 
and stripping out all white spaces and Intel HEX start code ":".

Why it was initially converted to binary and not used Intel HEX as it 
is? I think you know, as a original author, history about that decision?

Antti
