[erlang-questions] spawn_monitor documentation wrong

[Gabriel Pack]

Is the man page for erlang:spawn_monitor/1 out of date? I'm running  
R11B-5.

I had to find out the hard way that it doesn't behave like spawn_link/ 
1 as claimed. Rather than returning a PID, it returns {PID, _}. When  
trapping exits, you have to receive {'DOWN', _, _, _, _} as opposed  
to {'EXIT', _, _}.

I've been coding in Erlang for all of a couple weeks now. So let me  
know if I'm missing something.
