<br class="">
 I start erlang with<br class="">
<br class="">
    $ erl -detached<br class="">
<br class="">
and have two questions:<br class="">
<br class="">
1) If program does io:format(Format, Data) where does the output go?<br class="">
<br class="">
Does the output just vanish, or do I have to unclog some buffers eventually?<br class="">
<br class="">
2) Can I attach to the process later?<br class="">
<br class="">
    And if so does this work on the three major platforms OS-X, linux and<br class="">
    windows?<br class="">
<br class="">
Cheers<br class="">
<br class="">
