Please try this: $ gtags --gtagsconf=/usr/local/share/gtags/gtags.conf --gtagslabel=universal-ctags --explain > 3) Isn't gtags capable to find the ctags executable in my path? it is > not in /usr/local/bin/ctags, but it is in the PATH... so only ctags > works for me. > > 3.1) Is there something similar for ctagscom but from command line? Sure. You can do it using the following command line: $ GTAGSCONF="ctagscom=/usr/local/bin/ctags:gtags_parser=C#\:/usr/local/lib/gtags/universal-ctags.la:langmap=C#\:.cs:" gtags --explain Note the presence or absence of the quote before the semicolon.
