<PRE>Paul,
Thanks. It seems that in 2.7.2 the conversion is automatic: in other words, hex(int("ffffffffffffffff") == "ffffffffffffffff".

Python 2 has "int" and "long" types -- long is what crypto folks call "bignum". Arithmetic operations work on both. So if you want to do arithmetic on values too big for an int, put them into a long and do it then.
In Python 3, there is only "int" which is what used to be "long" (the small integer type went away) so the whole issue goes away.

Subject: Re: [pycrypto] string XOR
Dwayne,
I've been offline for a few days, so I apologize for the delay. I'm a new pycrypto user, and missed this - I appreciate the heads-up.
I've got a followup question too: I need to do bit shifts on long (8 or 16 byte) strings. I can't see any simple way to do this; the built-in Python bit shift functions only work on integers and don't seem to have multi-precision extensions. Any advice on how to do this?
Thanks again,
Dean

Also, if you're using PyCrypto anyway, you can use its fast C implementation of a byte-wise string XOR:
from Crypto.Util.strxor import strxor
