universal-ctags

build tag file indexes of source code definitions

ctags parses source code and produces a sort of index mapping the names of significant entities (e.g. functions, classes, variables) to the location where that entity is defined. This index is used by editors like vi and emacsen to allow moving to the definition of a user-specified entity. Universal Ctags is a fork of Exuberant Ctags that adds additional features as well as support for more languages.
