   Did you get help?   
   Or are you still looking for help with this.   
   I wrote a C function to do this, I call it htoa (hex-to-ascii).   
   The algorithm is simple. Add 0x30 to the hexadecimal digit if   
   it is between 0 and 9, if it is between A and F, then add 0x40,   
   and if it is between a and f, then add 0x60.
