NAME

       STDLIB - The STDLIB application.

DESCRIPTION

       The  STDLIB  application  is  mandatory  in  the  sense  that  the minimal system based on
       Erlang/OTP consists of Kernel and STDLIB. The STDLIB application contains no services.

CONFIGURATION

       The following configuration parameters are defined for the STDLIB  application.  For  more
       information about configuration parameters, see the app(5) module in Kernel.

         shell_esc = icl | abort:
           Can be used to change the behavior of the Erlang shell when ^G is pressed.

         restricted_shell = module():
           Can be used to run the Erlang shell in restricted mode.

         shell_catch_exception = boolean():
           Can be used to set the exception handling of the evaluator process of Erlang shell.

         shell_history_length = integer() >= 0:
           Can be used to determine how many commands are saved by the Erlang shell.

         shell_prompt_func = {Mod, Func} | default:
           where

           * Mod = atom()

           * Func = atom()

           Can be used to set a customized Erlang shell prompt function.

         shell_saved_results = integer() >= 0:
           Can be used to determine how many results are saved by the Erlang shell.

         shell_strings = boolean():
           Can be used to determine how the Erlang shell outputs lists of integers.
