(Tcl) SHA256 Hash the Bytes Represented in a Hex String
Demonstrates how to compute the SHA256 hash of the bytes represented by a hexidecimal encoded string, and return the hash bytes as an hex encoded string.

# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
# We wish to compute the SHA256 hash of the bytes 0x6C 0xF8 0xEA 0x51 0xE4 0xE0 0xF5 0x99 0xCF ...
