if you have gawk
Code:
awk --non-decimal-data '{print ("0x"$1)+0 " " ("0x"$2)+0}' file

output:
Code:
# awk --non-decimal-data '{print ("0x"$1)+0 " " ("0x"$2)+0}' file
20000 1141
10000 271
30000 27042

A python alternative:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
for line in open("file"):
	print "%d %d" %  ( int(line.split()[0],16) , int(line.split()[1],16) )

if you have dc,
Code:
awk '{ 
      h1 = "echo 16i " toupper($1) " pq | dc"
      h2 = "echo 16i " toupper($2) " pq | dc"
      h1 | getline tmp1; close(h1)
      h2 | getline tmp2; close(h2)
      print tmp1 " " tmp2
}' "file"

If your shell has printf builtin (bash, ksh93, ash, etc.), you can do it without any external commands:

Code:
while read a b
do
  printf "%5d %5d\n" "0x$a" "0x$b" 
done < "$FILE"

If the file is very large, you may be better off using awk.
