Hi, Jerry:<div><br></div><div>Note those '-' signs in the quoted ones. Erlang's demanding that an atom name be escaped in single quotes so that the hyphen doesn't get taken as a minus sign, thereby producing a gibberish expression.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you're writing something to systematically parse things like this, you might find looking at an Erlang reference useful so you can get a sense for what types are involved in such expressions, and what the syntactic conventions and requirements are on their structures...</div>
