I use a file finder (fzf) for jumping to files. Because module names follow file paths to jump to e.g. StgToCmmUtils.Utils I usually type `<C-p>stgcmmutils` and fzf finds the correct file `compiler/GHC/StgToCmm/Utils.hs`.
When generating tags I omit module names for this reason, it's easy with a good file finder to jump to modules already, no need to generate tags for the modules. fast-tags commands I use: - When working on the compiler: $ fast-tags --no-module-tags driver ghc compiler - When working on the RTS: $ fast-tags --no-module-tags driver ghc compiler $ ctags --append -R rts/**/*.c rts/**/*.h includes/**/*.h - When working on the libraries: $ fast-tags --no-module-tags driver ghc compiler libraries Ömer Sebastian Graf <[email protected]>, 23 Eki 2019 Çar, 16:49 tarihinde şunu yazdı: > > FWIW, I'm using VSCode's fuzzy file search with Ctrl+P (and vim's equivalent) > rather successfully.
