I use this code (probably copied from http_util or something like this).

byte2hex(X) -> % {{{
     {nibble2hex(X bsr 4), nibble2hex(X band 15)}. % }}}

nibble2hex(X) when X < 10 -> $0 + X; % {{{
nibble2hex(X) -> $A + X - 10. % }}}

bin2hexstring(Bin) -> % {{{
	lists:flatten(lists:map(
		fun(X) ->
			tuple_to_list(byte2hex(X))
		end,
	binary_to_list(Bin))). % }}}
