  eval(Filename)

  Reads and evaluates Erlang expressions, separated by . (or ,,
  a sequence of expressions is also an expression) from Filename.
  The result of the evaluation is not returned; any expression
  sequence in the file must be there for its side effect.

  Returns one of the following:

   • ok - The file was read and evaluated.

   • {error, atom()} - An error occurred when opening the file
     or reading it. For a list of typical error codes, see 
     open/2.

   • {error, {Line, Mod, Term}} - An error occurred when
     interpreting the Erlang expressions in the file. To convert
     the three-element tuple to an English description of the
     error, use format_error/1.

  The encoding of Filename can be set by a comment, as described
  in epp.

  eval(Filename, Bindings)

  The same as eval/1, but the variable bindings Bindings are
  used in the evaluation. For information about the variable
  bindings, see erl_eval.
