ctags

Open hallyn opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Is there any integration at all with ctags? Has adding that been discussed?

Do users currently simply not use ctags, or use ctags by hand?

I don't think it's ever been discussed. I seem to recall that the last time I wanted to use ctags with edbrowse, I looked at the file by hand.

Yeah, maybe just !grep "^identifier" tags is the best way...

As for the bfl (buffer list) command that started this thread, if you would like to implement it for the sheer joy of coding, and to become familiar with edbrowse code, you can, but I can probably write it in less than an hour and would be happy to do so if you wish. Your choice.

Somewhat similar to the bgl (background list) command, that lists background download jobs. Of course I'm always open to other UI suggestions on how it should work. Just let me know.

Also perhaps discussions like this are better on the edbrowse development mailing list.

Oh, I was thinking 'L' for list, but something like 'bl' or 'buffers' could be more discoverable.

yeah just walking the sessionList should be easy enough. But if you don't mind doing it, I'll happily leave it to you :)

Thanks! -serge
