There's always the possibility that he just forgot about cscope, and needs a reminder. The only way to actually find out the answer is to ask the question. > That's definitely a possibility.

There be many interfaces, but most of those are stand-alone shells on top of cscope. xcscope.el and the VIM cscope package are unique in that they sit _between_ two programs, which makes them depend on both of them. Distributing such two-way interfaces with either the editor or cscope makes a good deal more sense than it would for, say, kscope or other GUIs. > This one is in the repo; is this because at one point > Darryl was actively maintaining it here?

Which is why we owe it to Darryl Okahata to at least ask him before we change this, either way. > I could join the project as "the xcscope.el guy". Would that be > preferable to splitting it out?

I cannot meaningfully review patches to elisp anyway, so there would be no point in passing them by me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get your SQL database under version control now!
