This document describes the changes made to the Syntax_Tools application.

Syntax_Tools 1.6.7.1
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions

In a file containing declarations and comments without any empty lines between them, the recomment_forms() function would associate a multi-line comment with the declaration above it rather than the one following it. (Thanks to Richard Carlsson and Kostis Sagonas.)

Syntax_Tools 1.6.5
Improvements and New Features

The documentation is now possible to build in an open source environment after a number of bugs are fixed and some features are added in the documentation build process.

- The arity calculation is updated.

- The module prefix used in the function names for bif's are removed in the generated links so the links will look like "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#append_element-2" instead of "http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#erlang:append_element-2".

- Enhanced the menu positioning in the html documentation when a new page is loaded.

- A number of corrections in the generation of man pages (thanks to Sergei Golovan)

- The legal notice is taken from the xml book file so OTP's build process can be used for non OTP applications.
