moreover, i think that the faq should also mention that ''init stop''
will be run in parallell with ''hello hello_world''. this is important
when something longer running than hello_world is started this way :-)

That appears not to be true: when I run<br>

with<br>
<small><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">loop() -><br>
io:format("loop...~n",[]),<br>
timer:sleep(1000),<br>
loop().<br>

<br>
While we are on this subject I'd like to add a few related questions:<br>
<br>
1. How do I get rid of the "text junk output" written on standard out
in the beginning of a run? Like:<br>
<br>
<small><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">Erlang (BEAM)
emulator version 5.4.5 [hipe] [threads:0] [kernel-poll]<br>
<br>
=PROGRESS REPORT==== 24-Jan-2006::09:07:13 ===<br>
supervisor: {local,sasl_safe_sup}<br>
started: [{pid,<0.32.0>},<br>
{name,alarm_handler},<br>
{mfa,{alarm_handler,start_link,[]}},<br>
{restart_type,permanent},<br>
{shutdown,2000},<br>
{child_type,worker}]<br>
</font></small><br>
(I don't get this with the Windows )<br>
<br>
2. There appears to be quite a big start-up cost (or maybe it is
termination cost), <br>
> time erl -noshell -s init stop<br>
may take about a second. Any suggestions in how to reduce this?<br>
<br>
Any other suggestions on using erlang standalone as smoothly as
possible will be greatly appreciated.<br>
