I would be interrested by such code!

> You should be aware that nodes started with slave try to make the slave node use the master's filesystem automatically, though this doesn't work in all places (as shown in the bug https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bugs.erlang.org_browse_ERL-2D446&d=DwIFEA&c=L_h2OePR2UWWefmqrezxOsP9Uqw55rRfX5bRtw9S4KY&r=PevFox_7LK44ZV_jlS5jRM2WItKtsHV4zN_CrbdT2aM&m=ZYaInvQKkF5t9wYb-bJCCzIq2vg5EMJ-yPQV5oGSzhE&s=6hwbTzX8VVRetMB-wwsC4dH_o0qsG_TWFYjhbCw7Hbs&e= <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bugs.erlang.org_browse_ERL-2D446&d=DwIFEA&c=L_h2OePR2UWWefmqrezxOsP9Uqw55rRfX5bRtw9S4KY&r=PevFox_7LK44ZV_jlS5jRM2WItKtsHV4zN_CrbdT2aM&m=ZYaInvQKkF5t9wYb-bJCCzIq2vg5EMJ-yPQV5oGSzhE&s=6hwbTzX8VVRetMB-wwsC4dH_o0qsG_TWFYjhbCw7Hbs&e=>  which affects tsung).  This behavior doesn't seem to be well documented (nor the -master command line argument used on the erl executable) but it appears to be the main deciding factor for whether slave is usable for a given situation (in addition to the linking that occurs between the master node, making the nodes not exist independently).
