in reply to what is the translation?

I can confirm that it's ROT47. I translated the regexp into simple perl:
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dumper::Concise; my $string = '0x0ddb00b5'; my $rot = rot47($string); print Dumper($rot); sub rot47 { my $str = shift; $str =~ tr/!-~/P-~!-O/; return $str; } exit 0;
The output is the same as your shell script:
"_I_553__3d"

    What regexp?    There is no regular expression in either the question or your reply.

    Thanks for the effort! I didn't know rot47 is a encryption method of ASCII text file.

      s/encryption/obsfucation/. This is a very weak method that is not secure from anyone but the most honest of users.
