Description-en: ctags plugin for Geany
GeanyCtags adds a simple support for generating and querying ctags files
for a Geany project.
.
Even though Geany supports symbol definition searching by itself within the
open files (and with a plugin support within the whole project), tag
regeneration can become too slow for really big projects. This is why this
plugin was created. It makes it possible to generate the tag file only once
and just query it when searching for a particular symbol
definition/declaration. This approach is fine for big projects where most
of the codebase remains unchanged and the tag positions remain more or
less static.
.
Geany is a small and lightweight integrated development environment using the
Gtk+ toolkit.
