The documentation is now possible to build in an open source environment after a number of bugs are fixed and some features are added in the documentation build process.
- The arity calculation is updated.
- The module prefix used in the function names for bif's are removed in the generated links so the links will look like "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#append_element-2" instead of "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#erlang:append_element-2".
- Enhanced the menu positioning in the html documentation when a new page is loaded.
- A number of corrections in the generation of man pages (thanks to Sergei Golovan)
