[erlang-questions] shell and escript?

[Fred Hebert]

Hi,

I recently wrote a blog post about how the Erlang shell works (in the
large sense) and this might be useful when it comes to choosing how to
start things: http://ferd.ca/repl-a-bit-more-and-less-than-that.html
I hope this helps.

Regards,
Fred.
