rune-hex 0.1.1

//! Hex encoding and decoding for byte slices and files.
//!
//! Converts between raw bytes and their hexadecimal string representation.
//! Decoding accepts mixed-case input and optional `0x` prefix.
//! The library has zero dependencies.
//!
//! # Features
//!
//! - [`encode`] — encode bytes to a lowercase hex string.
//! - [`encode_upper`] — encode bytes to an uppercase hex string.
//! - [`decode`] — decode a hex string to bytes; accepts mixed case and `0x` prefix.
//! - [`HexError`] — error type for malformed input.
//!
//! # Quick Start
//!
//! ```rust
//! use rune_hex::{encode, decode};
//!
//! let hex = encode(b"hello");
//! assert_eq!(hex, "68656c6c6f");
//!
//! let bytes = decode(&hex).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(bytes, b"hello");
//! ```
