Hex | str2hex and hex2str

the other day one of my clan-members started talking in leetspeak ..
and called me a noob so, i decided to show him;
told him real men speak in hex; not leet/hex -speak
but of course i can't remember the ascii codes .. so i wrote these two scripts to do the conversion..

import sys, signal
from string import replace
_head = "hex2str.py | converts a hex2str.py string back to text\npress Ctrl+C to exit.\n"
print _head , ' - '*(len(_head)/4)

#signal handle is just cosmetik? to prevent the ugly error
#if you kill the script with ctrl+c
def signal_handler(signal, frame):
    print "\n"
    sys.exit(0)
signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, signal_handler)


def hex2str(st):
    out = ''
    while len(st) > 0:
        out += chr(int(st[0:2], 16))
        st = st[2:]
    return out
    
while True:
    _in = raw_input('hex2str:> ')
    if len(_in) > 0:
        print '         ',hex2str(_in).replace('x',' ').upper()

def str2hex(word):
    out = ''
    for char in word:
        out += hex(ord(char))
    return out
    
while True:
    _in = raw_input('str2hex:> ')
    if len(_in) > 0:
        _in = str2hex(_in).replace('0x','').upper()
        print '         ',_in
