Hi,

If you put this in your .vimrc, you can ask Emacs to indent the file
that you are editing by typing :IndentErl.

command! IndentErl call IndentErlangWithEmacs()

function! IndentErlangWithEmacs()
    exec '!emacs --eval "(progn (find-file \"' . expand('%:p') . '\")' .
       \ '(erlang-indent-current-buffer) (save-buffer) '.
       \ '(save-buffers-kill-emacs))"'
endfunction
