The Erlang shell has been improved to support the
following features:
-- Auto-complete variables, record names, record field
names, map keys, function parameter types and
filenames.
-- Open external editor in the shell (with C-o) to edit
the current expression in an editor.
-- Support defining records (with types), functions and
function typespecs, and custom types in the shell.
-- Do not save pager commands, and input to io:getline
in history.

PR-6144
The TTY/terminal subsystem has been rewritten from by
moving more code to Erlang from the old linked-in
driver and implementing all the I/O primitives needed
in a NIF instead.
On Unix platforms the user should not notice a lot of
difference, besides better handling of unicode
characters and fixing of some long standing bugs.
Windows users will notice that erl.exe has the same
functionality as a normal Unix shell and that werl.exe
has been removed and replaced with a symlink to
erl.exe. This makes the Windows Erlang terminal
experience identical to that of Unix.
The re-write brings with it a number of bug fixes and
feature additions:
-- The TTY is now reset when Erlang exits, fixing zsh
to not break when terminating an Erlang session.
-- standard_error now uses the same unicode mode as
standard_io.
-- Hitting backspace when searching the shell history
with an empty search string no longer breaks the shell.
-- Tab expansion now works on remote nodes started
using the JCL interface.
-- It is now possible to configure the shell slogan and
the session slogans (that is the texts that appear when
you start an Erlang shell). See the kernel
documentation for more details.
-- Added shell:start_interactive for starting the
interactive shell from a non-interactive Erlang session
(for example an escript).
-- On Windows, when starting in detached mode the
standard handler are now set to nul devices instead of
being unset.

*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
As announced when OTP 25 was released, multi time warp
mode is now enabled by default. This assumes that all
code executing on the system is time warp safe.
If you have old code in the system that is not time
warp safe, you now explicitly need to start the system
in no time warp mode (or singe time warp mode if it is
partially time warp safe) in order to avoid problems.
When starting the system in no time warp mode, the
system behaves as it did prior to the introduction of
the extended time functionality introduced in OTP 18.
If you have code that is not time warp safe, you are
strongly encouraged to change this so that you can use
multi time warp mode. Compared to no time warp mode,
multi time warp mode improves scalability and
performance as well as accuracy and precision of time
measurements.
OTP-18137 Application(s): compiler, erts
Related Id(s): PR-6259, PR-6404, PR-6576, PR-6804
There are several new optimization for binary syntax in
the JIT:
-- Creation and matching of binaries with segments of
fixed sizes have been optimized.
-- Creation and matching of UTF-8 segments have been
optimized.
-- Appending to binaries has been optimized.
OTP-18185 Application(s): compiler, erts
Related Id(s): GH-6139
The compiler and JIT now generate better code for
creation of small maps where all keys are literals
known at compile time.
OTP-18188 Application(s): dialyzer
Related Id(s): PR-5997
Dialyzer has a new incremental mode that be invoked by
giving the --incremental option when running Dialyzer.
This new incremental mode is likely to become the
default in a future release.
Incremental mode primarily differs from the previous,
"classic", ways of running Dialyzer, in that its model
is optimised around the common use case of regularly
analysing a single codebase, tweaking the code,
analysing it again, and so on, without explicit
reference to the building and checking of a PLT.
In this mode the PLT file acts much more like a true
cache, where users provide a codebase and a set of
files they care about, and Dialyzer does the legwork in
terms of deciding how to most efficiently report all of
the relevant warnings given the cached results it may
already have in the PLT (and if a PLT doesn't exist,
incremental mode will create one).

Support for Kernel TLS (kTLS), has been added to the
SSL application, for TLS distribution (-proto_dist
inet_tls), the SSL option {ktls, true}. Using this for
general SSL sockets is uncomfortable, undocumented and
not recommended since it requires very platform

This, for now, only works for some not too old Linux
distributions. Roughly, a kernel 5.2.0 or later with
support for UserLand Protocols and the kernel module
tls is required.

As announced when OTP 25 was released, multi time warp
mode is now enabled by default. This assumes that all
code executing on the system is time warp safe.
If you have old code in the system that is not time
warp safe, you now explicitly need to start the system
in no time warp mode (or singe time warp mode if it is
partially time warp safe) in order to avoid problems.
When starting the system in no time warp mode, the
system behaves as it did prior to the introduction of
the extended time functionality introduced in OTP 18.
If you have code that is not time warp safe, you are
strongly encouraged to change this so that you can use
multi time warp mode. Compared to no time warp mode,
multi time warp mode improves scalability and
performance as well as accuracy and precision of time
measurements.

Dialyzer has a new incremental mode that be invoked by

This new incremental mode is likely to become the

Incremental mode primarily differs from the previous,
"classic", ways of running Dialyzer, in that its model
is optimised around the common use case of regularly
analysing a single codebase, tweaking the code,
analysing it again, and so on, without explicit
reference to the building and checking of a PLT.
In this mode the PLT file acts much more like a true
cache, where users provide a codebase and a set of
files they care about, and Dialyzer does the legwork in
terms of deciding how to most efficiently report all of
the relevant warnings given the cached results it may
already have in the PLT (and if a PLT doesn't exist,
incremental mode will create one).

The TTY/terminal subsystem has been rewritten from by
moving more code to Erlang from the old linked-in
driver and implementing all the I/O primitives needed
in a NIF instead.
On Unix platforms the user should not notice a lot of
difference, besides better handling of unicode
characters and fixing of some long standing bugs.
Windows users will notice that erl.exe has the same
functionality as a normal Unix shell and that werl.exe
has been removed and replaced with a symlink to
erl.exe. This makes the Windows Erlang terminal
experience identical to that of Unix.
The re-write brings with it a number of bug fixes and
feature additions:
-- The TTY is now reset when Erlang exits, fixing zsh
to not break when terminating an Erlang session.
-- standard_error now uses the same unicode mode as
standard_io.
-- Hitting backspace when searching the shell history
with an empty search string no longer breaks the shell.
-- Tab expansion now works on remote nodes started
using the JCL interface.
-- It is now possible to configure the shell slogan and
the session slogans (that is the texts that appear when
you start an Erlang shell). See the kernel
documentation for more details.
-- Added shell:start_interactive for starting the
interactive shell from a non-interactive Erlang session
(for example an escript).
-- On Windows, when starting in detached mode the
standard handler are now set to nul devices instead of

As announced when OTP 25 was released, multi time warp
mode is now enabled by default. This assumes that all
code executing on the system is time warp safe.
If you have old code in the system that is not time
warp safe, you now explicitly need to start the system
in no time warp mode (or singe time warp mode if it is
partially time warp safe) in order to avoid problems.
When starting the system in no time warp mode, the
system behaves as it did prior to the introduction of
the extended time functionality introduced in OTP 18.
If you have code that is not time warp safe, you are
strongly encouraged to change this so that you can use
multi time warp mode. Compared to no time warp mode,
multi time warp mode improves scalability and
performance as well as accuracy and precision of time
measurements.

Replace size/1 with either tuple_size/1 or byte_size/1
The size/1 BIF is not optimized by the JIT, and its use

When one knows that the value being tested must be a

When one knows that the value being tested must be a

byte_size/1 also accepts a bitstring (rounding up size

Note that the compiler removes redundant calls to
is_binary/1, so if one is not sure whether previous
code had made sure that the argument is a binary, it
does not harm to add an is_binary/1 test immediately
before the call to byte_size/1.

The TTY/terminal subsystem has been rewritten from by
moving more code to Erlang from the old linked-in
driver and implementing all the I/O primitives needed
in a NIF instead.
On Unix platforms the user should not notice a lot of
difference, besides better handling of unicode
characters and fixing of some long standing bugs.
Windows users will notice that erl.exe has the same
functionality as a normal Unix shell and that werl.exe
has been removed and replaced with a symlink to
erl.exe. This makes the Windows Erlang terminal
experience identical to that of Unix.
The re-write brings with it a number of bug fixes and
feature additions:
-- The TTY is now reset when Erlang exits, fixing zsh
to not break when terminating an Erlang session.
-- standard_error now uses the same unicode mode as
standard_io.
-- Hitting backspace when searching the shell history
with an empty search string no longer breaks the shell.
-- Tab expansion now works on remote nodes started
using the JCL interface.
-- It is now possible to configure the shell slogan and
the session slogans (that is the texts that appear when
you start an Erlang shell). See the kernel
documentation for more details.
-- Added shell:start_interactive for starting the
interactive shell from a non-interactive Erlang session
(for example an escript).
-- On Windows, when starting in detached mode the
standard handler are now set to nul devices instead of
