+ <p> Add encoding when parsing Wiki text. EDoc used to
+ fail on strings such as "���". (Thanks to Richard

+ <p> It is now possible to use Erlang specifications and
+ types in EDoc documentation. Erlang specifications and
+ types will be used unless there is also a function
+ specification (<c>@spec</c>) or a type alias
+ (<c>@type</c>) with the same name. In the current
+ implementation the placement of <c>-spec</c> matters: it
+ should be placed where the <c>@spec</c> would otherwise
+ have been placed. </p>
+ <p>Not all Erlang types are included in the
+ documentation, but only those exported by some
+ <c>export_type</c> declaration or used by some documented
+ Erlang specification (<c>-spec</c>). </p>
+ <p> There is currently no support for overloaded Erlang
+ specifications. </p>
+ <p> The syntax definitions of EDoc have been augmented to
+ cope with most of the Erlang types. (But we recommend
+ that Erlang types should be used instead.) </p>
+ <p> <c>edoc:read_source()</c> takes one new option,
+ <c>report_missing_types</c>. <c>edoc_layout:module()</c>
+ takes one new option, <c>pretty_printer</c>. </p>

+ <p> The <c>edoc_lib</c> module is meant to be private,
+ but since it is referred to from other man pages it has
+ been included in the OTP documentation. The modifications
+ introduced in this ticket make all functions private
+ except those referred to from other pages. </p>
