This function converts a byte string into its hexadecimal encoding. It is identical to $C2X (see the "Model 204 User Language Manual"), except it is longstring capable.
The $Lstr_C2X function accepts one argument and returns a string result which is the hexadecimal encoding of that argument.
The first argument is a longstring.
The returned value is the hexadecimal encoding of the argument string.
