I am new to Erlang and would like to to know how to install third party modules for use in my web application.
Where do you place this files and what sort of commands do
In my distributive (Arch Linux) this place is /usr/lib/erlang/lib. Of course, you need to build module (make).
Also you can define path for your modules:
demas@arch ~ $ cat .erlang code:add_pathz("/media/pt_lin/materials/erlang").
