which is in size of 18.3M.
CHANGELOG:

To install:
- Unzip erlybird-bin-0.15.1-ide.zip to somewhere.
- Make sure ‘erl.exe’ or ‘erl’ is under your environment path

- Check/set your OTP path. From [Tools]->[Options], click on ‘Erlang’, then ‘Erlang Installation’ tab, fill in the full path of your ‘erl.exe’ or ‘erl’ file. For instance: “C:/erl/bin/erl.exe”
