Hi all,
In the Erlang Reference Manual, Version 5.4.12:
1.4 Complete List of BIFs
Quote: For a complete list of BIFs, their arguments and return values, refer to erlang(3).
This message doesn't really help someone looking for the list of BIFs (Built in Functions / keywords), as "erlang(3)" isn't hyperlinked. It's a man page yes, but most people don't get it installed and all they have is the HTML documentation.
Is there someone who is willing to modify the help HTML file to update this? Maybe create a man2html page for "erlang(3)" and provide it with the documentation of Erlang.
Sincerely,
David |

The reference to erlang(3) refers to the Erlang module in
the kernel application. It is a man page but everything available
as a man page is also available in the html documentation.
So if you have the html docs you have the reference manual for the erlang module.
I agree with you that we could improve by hyper linking to erlang.
