What did you try? Please remember to show your sample input, code, expected output vs. actual output (incl. error messages), otherwise we can't help much.

Also please mark hexadecimal numbers as such, since apparently you mean 0x29==41 instead of 29, as well as 0x32 and 0x39 for the ASCII string "29".

Anyway, pack works fine for me:

$ perl -MData::Dump=pp -le 'print pp pack("C", 0x29)' ")"

For this new problem you might want to start a new thread since this one is starting to get fairly deep (and remember How do I post a question effectively?).
