I use some aliases in my .bashrc which are pretty handy for converting HEX or BINARY or DECIMAL:
alias HEX="ruby -e 'printf("0x%X\n", ARGV[0])'" alias DEC="ruby -e 'printf("%d\n", ARGV[0])'" alias BIN="ruby -e 'printf("%bb\n", ARGV[0])'"
(You can replace 'ruby' with 'perl' if you want)
bash has printf too; try printf 0x%X\n 128
