;;; Commentary:

;; Introduction:
;; ------------
;;
;; This package provides support for the programming language Erlang.
;; The package provides an editing mode with lots of bells and
;; whistles, compilation support, and it makes it possible for the
;; user to start Erlang shells that run inside Emacs.
;;
;; See the Erlang distribution for full documentation of this package.

;; Installation:
;; ------------
;;
;; Place this file in Emacs load path, byte-compile it, and add the
;; following line to the appropriate init file:
;;
;;    (require 'erlang-start)
;;
;; The full documentation contains much more extensive description of
;; the installation procedure.

;; Reporting Bugs:
;; --------------
;;
;; Please send bug reports to the following email address:
;;     support@erlang.ericsson.se
;;
;; Please state as exactly as possible:
;;    - Version number of Erlang Mode (see the menu), Emacs, Erlang,
;;	and of any other relevant software.
;;    - What the expected result was.
;;    - What you did, preferably in a repeatable step-by-step form.
;;    - A description of the unexpected result.
;;    - Relevant pieces of Erlang code causing the problem.
;;    - Personal Emacs customisations, if any.
;;
;; Should the Emacs generate an error, please set the emacs variable
;; `debug-on-error' to `t'.  Repeat the error and enclose the debug
;; information in your bug-report.
;;
;; To set the variable you can use the following command:
;;     M-x set-variable RET debug-on-error RET t RET

;;; Code:

;;
;; Declare functions in "erlang.el".

;;
;; Associate files using interpreter "escript" with Erlang mode.
;;

;; Ignore files ending in ".jam", ".vee", and ".beam" when performing
;; file completion.

;; The end.
