+ Teach the emacs mode to compile yecc and leex files</p>
+ <p>
+ If visiting a .yrl or .xrl file in emacs with
+ erlang-mode, then the `erlang-compile' function (normally
+ bound to C-c C-k), now knows how to compile yecc and leex
+ files, and then, if that compilation succeeds, also
+ compiles the resulting .erl files.</p>
+ <p>
+ Also introduce a `erlang-compile-command-function-alist'
+ to make it possible to hook in other functions for
+ computing compilation commands/expressions, depending on
+ file name. (Thanks to Tomas Abrahamsson )</p>

+ <p>
+ Change make:files to behave more like erlc</p>
+ <p>
+ This change removes the unnecessary checks on the files
+ when make:files is called and allows the error checking
+ to be done in compile:file, where the error messages are
+ produced. It does not affect the return value.</p>

+ <p>
+ add user specified compiler options on form reloading</p>
+ <p>
+ In order to be able to test non-exported functions from
+ another (test) module it is necessary to compile the
+ specific module (at least during the test phase) with the
+ export_all compiler option. This allows complete
+ separation of testing and productive code. At the moment
+ it is not possible to combine this with a test code
+ coverage using the cover module. The problem is that when
+ cover compiling a module using cover:compile_* the code
+ is reloaded into the emulator omitting/filtering the
+ passed user options. In my example above the export_all
+ option would be removed and the non-exported functions
+ cannot be called any more. (Thanks to Tobias Schlager)</p>

+ Inhibit electric newline after "-&gt;" when inside a type
+ spec</p>
+ <p>
+ The Erlang mode for Emacs inserts a newline after every
+ "-&gt;", which saves you one keystroke when writing a
+ function, but that is inappropriate when writing a type
+ spec, as you'd normally keep the spec on one line. This
+ change inhibits the automatic insertion when the current
+ line starts with "-spec" or "-type".(Thanks to Magnus
+ Henoch)</p>

+ Add a check logic to prevent file descriptor leak</p>
+ <p>
+ cover module handle files as raw in export and import.
+ Assert counts of ports are the same at the beginning and
+ at the end of the test case.(Thanks to Shunichi
