I can't tell which unicode range those specific code points belong to, but
if you're sure the hex data represents utf-8, and I understand what you are
asking for correctly, try something like:

line.scan(/(....)/).each do |code_point|
  puts code_point.pack('H*')
end

Depending on where the data is coming from, you might need to flip the bytes
to account for endianness. I don't believe that will be an issue on linux.

Hope it helps,
Ammar
