Cheers.

On a related note, who_calls actually returns the line number of the 
call sites but this currently isn't displayed/used. This was the case in 
the previous version too.

There is a comment in the code saying "FIXME: Use line number for a 
hyperlink.". I reckon one way to implement something sensible along 
these lines is to construct an, in Emacs-lingo, "overlay" for the 
displayed m:f/a with the line number information. We can then look for 
this invisible piece of information in "M-." (aka 
erl-find-source-under-point) and, if present, navigate to it.

Any other suggestions?


Matthias.
