[erlang-questions] string in << >>

[Gleb Peregud]

You have to convert your list to binary first:

1> X = "milsze-slowo-niz-dupa".
"milsze-slowo-niz-dupa"
2> Y = list_to_binary(X).
<<"milsze-slowo-niz-dupa">>
3> <<Y/binary, 3:2>>.
<<109,105,108,115,122,101,45,115,108,111,119,111,45,110,
  105,122,45,100,117,112,97,3:2>>
