[erlang-questions] Autosaving *.erl in emacs before compilation

[Roberto Saccon]

Interesting approach, thanks for sharing. There is one this however I
do not understand from looking at your elisp code: make:all() looks in
the directory  where the VM has started for an Emakefile. How does
that magically happen with your approach, if you have a folder
structure with several source directories, each one with its own
Emakefile ?

Roberto
