[erlang-questions] An interactive erlang console

[A. G. Madi]

Hi Arun,
I write a lot of CLI tools using Erlang so I created some escript boilerplate code that I use for this.  You can find it at https://github.com/WarpEngineer/escript_boilerplate Maybe you can use it to build your tool or maybe it'll give you some ideas on setting it up the way you like it.

   Hi, I am working on an erlang application which provides a command line tool to run some basic tests on hardware. The tool work like this,
 as the application starts, it will prompt a message on the console, user can give any options present in the console, based on the options
 provided by user the application performs the required tests.
 
 I am using io:read/1, functions to display the message and read the user provided options. But the problem with this function is that, user has to give a
 dot at the end. Is it possible to avoid forcing user to put dot at the end of every option he provides, any better function or is there any better way build
 a command line tool in erlang.
 
 Can someone please help me out in this.
 
 Thanks and regards,
 Arun
