Before starting
To interpret values (e.g. hexadecimal timestamps) and/or create configuration/setup files, some conversions are needed (e.g. from addresses to bytes in hexadecimal format).
A script is provided in Pandora's repository (scripts/converter) that can be used as follows:
./scripts/converter --hex-to-date dd0f686600000000
