Comments

List2Raw converts a list of integers and strings into a stream of raw data types, useful for network protocols or MIDI system exclusive messages. Integers are converted in the corresponding byte (e.g., the integer 41 is converted to byte value 41, the character "A"), while strings are appended directly to the data stream (e.g., the string "OSW" appends the characters "O", "S" and "W"). Elements of other data types return errors and do not affect the data stream output.
