+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>The format of debug information that is stored in BEAM
+ files (when <c>debug_info</c> is used) has been changed.
+ The purpose of the change is to better support other
+ BEAM-based languages such as Elixir or LFE.</p>
+ <p>All tools included in OTP (dialyzer, debugger, cover,
+ and so on) will handle both the new format and the
+ previous format. Tools that retrieve the debug
+ information using <c>beam_lib:chunk(Beam,
+ [abstract_code])</c> will continue to work with both the
+ new and old format. Tools that call
+ <c>beam_lib:chunk(Beam, ["Abst"])</c> will not work with
+ the new format.</p>
+ <p>For more information, see the description of
+ <c>debug_info</c> in the documentation for
+ <c>beam_lib</c> and the description of the
+ <c>{debug_info,{Backend,Data}}</c> option in the

+ <title>Using TypEr from the Command Line</title>
+ <p>TypEr is used from the command-line. This section provides a
+ brief description of the options. The same information can be
+ obtained by writing the following in a shell:</p>
+
+ <code type="none">
+typer --help</code>

+ <p><em>Usage:</em></p>
+
+ <code type="none">

+ [-Ddefine]* [-I include_dir]* [-pa dir]* [-pz dir]*
+ [-T application]* [-r] file*</code>

+ <p>* denotes that multiple occurrences of the option are possible.</p>

+ <item>
+ <p>Search directories recursively for .erl files below them.</p>

+
+ <tag><c>--show-exported</c> (or <c>show_exported</c>)</tag>
+ <item>
+ <p>Same as <c>--show</c>, but print specifications for

+ <item>
+ <p>Annotate the specified files with type specifications.</p>
+ </item>
+
+ <tag><c>--annotate-inc-files</c></tag>
+ <item>
+ <p>Same as <c>--annotate</c> but annotates all
+ <c>-include()</c> files as well as all .erl files. (Use this
+ option with caution - it has not been tested much).</p>
+ </item>
+
+ <tag><c>--edoc</c></tag>

+ <p>The specified file(s) already contain type specifications
