2015-03-10Make the scanned form of the io_lib format strings available for processingRichard Carlsson
This adds three new functions to io_lib - scan_format/2, unscan_format/1, and build_text/1 - which expose the parsed form of the format control sequences to make it possible to easily modify or filter the input to io_lib:format/2. This can e.g. be used in order to replace unbounded-size control sequences like ~w or ~p with corresponding depth-limited ~W and ~P before doing the actual formatting.

2015-02-20Fix documentation about character types in unicode modeAnthony Ramine
Behaviour of character types \d, \w and \s has always been to not match characters with value above 255, not 128, i.e. they are limited to ISO-Latin-1 and not ASCII.

2014-09-19Optimise io requests for long message queuesMagnus Henoch
Ensure that the monitor reference is present in all receive clauses, so that the compiler optimisation kicks in and the run time won't depend on the length of the message queue of the calling process. Remove the 'EXIT' clause, as its presence breaks the optimisation, and that case is handled by the 'DOWN' clause anyway. The test io_SUITE:io_with_huge_message_queue is an adaptation of gen_server_SUITE:call_with_huge_message_queue.
2014-09-18Add note about adjacent separator characters in string:tokens/2Siri Hansen
Adjacent separator characters are treated as one in string:tokens/2. This was shown in the example in the reference manual but it was not written in words. A note about this is now added.
