fzrt_UUID_to_string

Description

Creates an ascii string for a UUID. Two string format options are available: Traditional : "{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}" formZ : "\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX\xXX" where X is a hexadecimal digit. A traditional string will be created if traditional is set to TRUE.
Traditional strings are the most common way to present a UUID in a human readable form. formZ strings are used to set UUIDs to variables in formZ plugins and scripts.
