Barrett barrett@cs.umass.edu DESCRIPTION This ARexx script interfaces TurboText with GNU ETags, allowing you to locate function definitions in your C programs automatically. If you know what "ctags" is on UNIX, "etags" is basically the same thing. If you have never used either of these programs, NOW IS THE TIME! Any C programmer will *LOVE* these programs. Trust me. Here is an example. Imagine that you are working on a large program with many files. In your code, you have the line: x = MyFunction(a, b, c); Suppose you want to see the definition of MyFunction(). What do you do? Well, you try to remember which file has MyFunction, load it into the editor, search for "MyFunction", and eventually you find it. LoadETag makes this 1000 times easier! With LoadETag, just place your cursor on the word "MyFunction" in the function call above, and press one key. BOOM! The file containing MyFunction is automatically loaded, and the cursor is positioned right on the function definition. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS TurboText 1.03 or higher. GNU ETags (available on all Fred Fish "FreshFish" CD-ROM's) ARexx. HOST NAME Any Aminet ftp site, such as wuarchive.wustl.edu (128.252.135.4).
