werl(1)

NAME
erl - The Erlang Emulator

DESCRIPTION

On Windows 95/NT, the preferred way to start the Erlang system is:

werl <script-flags> <user-flags>

This will start Erlang in its own window, which is nice for interactive use (command-line editing will work and there are scrollbars). All flags except the -oldshell flag work as in erl.

In cases there you want to redirect standard input and/or standard output or use Erlang in a pipeline, the werl is not suitable, and the erl program should be used instead.
