Erlang, Emacs, & Semantic

Hi,

  Vladimir G. Sekissov <[email protected]> had written support for Erlang
code in Semantic (http://cedet.sf.net/semantic.shtml) which I
maintain.  (Semantic is a parser generator infrastructure.)  The
semantic project is undergoing changes and I've been looking for some
amount of guidance in porting his code to the new API's we are working
on.  I then found Distel.

  I'm just trying to find erlang-mode for Emacs and some simple erlang
test code so I can make sure I don't break anything when I port.  I
was hoping not to download and install all of Erlang.

  In reading about Distel it occured to me that it could be used as a
back-end to Semantic's token database.  If any of you have used
semantic for coding, you might consider this as a spiff way to get
more out of semantic for your hacking needs.  Examples include smart
completion, eldoc-like support, advanced imenu/speedbar support, and
use via ECB.  (http://ecb.sf.net).

Have fun
Eric
