Ctags generates an index (or tag) file of language objects found in source
files that allows these items to be quickly and easily located by a text
editor or other utility. A tag signifies a language object for which an index
entry is available (or, alternatively, the index entry created for that
object).
Tag generation is supported for the following languages:
Assembler, AWK, ASP, BETA, Bourne/Korn/Zsh Shell, C, C++, COBOL, Eiffel,
Fortran, Java, Lisp, Lua, Make, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, REXX, Ruby,
S-Lang, Scheme, Tcl, Vim, and YACC.
A list of editors and tools utilizing tag files may be found here:
