I sent this message last friday night but obviously it did not arrive anywhere. So this is the second try:
Hi, thank you for your interest in this package and special thanks for maintaining GLOBAL.

Some short advice: - add the package to some place where emacs can find it, if necessary add your path to the load-path variable - add (require 'xgtags) to .emacs - toggle the minor mode with the interactive command xgtags-mode - to turn it on for all c-sources add something like (add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook (lambda () (xgtags-mode 1))) to .emacs; other (programming) modes provide similar hooks - per default the bindings for M-. and M-* are overwritten by xgtags; some more bindings are provided with the prefix C-c w and can be viewed with describe-mode when xgtags-mode is on, or with describe-function xgtags-mode - part of xgtags behavior can be customized; especially several things that I disliked with gtags.el can be turned of ;-) - have fun :-) I hope the default configuration will work, since I do not use xgtags that way. I'm especially uncertain about the rootdir stuff. So if there are any questions and/or problems, just contact me I will try to give the necessary information or fix the bugs. Regards, Marco
