reorder byte order in hex string (python)

Question

I want to build a small formatter in python giving me back the numeric values embedded in lines of hex strings.

It is a central part of my formatter and should be re

Answer 1

import binascii, tkinter, array
from tkinter import *

infile_read = filedialog.askopenfilename()

with open(infile, 'rb') as infile_:
    infile_read = infile_.read()

x = (infile_read)
y = array.array('l', x)
y.byteswap()
swapped = (binascii.hexlify(y))

This is a 32 bit unsigned short swap i achieved with code very much the same as "unutbu's" answer just a little bit easier to understand. And technically binascii is not needed for the swap. Only array.byteswap is needed.
