Console utility for bootstrapping Erlang applications.

erlang.bootstrap requires the dialog and wget programs to function, plus the standard unix tool set. On Windows, it is probably easier to setup using cygwin or setup a Linux VM to work in.

Put erlang.bootstrap in your $PATH, and then call it in the directory where you want to create your new application.

$ erlang.bootstrap

A series of dialogs will appear, guiding you towards creating your application. The application name will be taken from the current directory, as Erlang/OTP expects it to be the same.

You can also use it to add modules to an existing application. If erlang.bootstrap finds a .app.src file of the same name as the current folder, it will understand the application already exists and go directly to the main menu allowing you to add new modules and perform other common operations.
