I've updated the Erlang programming language on Athena to R12B-3. To start
an interactive shell:
add erlang
erl
and type toolbar:start(). at the > prompt to launch the toolbar. From my
message to users:
The default Erlang version has been updated to R12B-3. To access the prior
erlang_vR11B-5 Erlang shell/runtime for a limited time:
add erlang
erl -ver erlang_vR11B-5
At the erl > prompt, you can launch the toolbar by typing:
toolbar:start().
and you can exit the runtime by typing
halt().
There is introductory information with examples at
http://web.mit.edu/erlang_vR12B-3/white_paper.html and an online Erlang
course at http://www.erlang.org/course/course.html. Other information
is available at the Erlang Web site http://www.erlang.org
