The get/1 function is defined in erlang:get/1. It is used to look up values in the process dictionary. The syntax highlighter doesn't understand that get/2 is defined locally in the current module, so it thinks your call to get is to the underlying 'erlang:get/1', not to ?MODULE:get/2. And all problems stems from there.</div></div></blockquote><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Correct -- see lib/tools/emacs/erlang.el on the maint branch, line 759 (I would link to github but it's being ddos'ed right now so I can't get to it), where "get" is specified as part of an elisp variable holding erlang bif names. Erlang-mode highlights those names as symbols.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">--steve</div></div></div></div>
