Is there an :observer.start in headless?

I like supervisors and :observer.start() is one of my favorite tools to follow my supervisor tree.

I miss it a lot when I’m not on my dev box (aka: Heroku), so… do you know an equivalent for headless server?

Thank you.

You do not described what you want to achieve, so I will list helpful Erlang projects:

Erlang observer web frontend

Here you have a Web version of observer - it looks like this is not finished yet.

#3 Using Erlang observer/appmon remotely

And finally you can use observer remotely in case your server does not have X session started.

Hope that looking on this projects code or tutorial instructions will help you.
