XOR decode search results?

Does anyone know a way to XOR results with a given key? By that I mean my search results would have an encoded hex string that I want to decode with, for example, "FF" resulting in the decoded string.

I thought there would be an easy way but i'm not seeing it.

There is no such built-in function or operator. What you can do is build your own command that you can perform XOR on your search results with.
