[erlang-questions] Private message regarding: adding compile pass

You can add a core transform pass, just like a parse transform, but there
is no support for adding passes below that level.

In the source file: -compile({core_transform,Module}).

or on the command line: erlc +'{core_transform,Module}'

will cause Module:core_transform(Code, Options) to be called during
compilation.
