Hello,

First of all thank you Andrew for your advices.

Yes, now i think about beter FSM implementation.

Yes, i know about it. This is the weakest point. This piece of code is
my top priority in the fixing.

Yes i write tests, only they aren't in github.

Thank you very much for your offer. You say right: i do it for my
expirience, i want to deep learn Erlang and functional programming.

Thank you.
