I'm running global 6.6.10-1 on Arch / Manjaro Linux. Just wanted to check about a couple of issues on this discussion list before bothering the developers.
1. The last few lines of /usr/share/gtags/PLUGIN_HOWTO.pygments should probably be deleted. It currently reads: <begin quote> Pygments plug-in parser was written by Yoshitaro MAKISE. For detals, please see the following site: [https://github.com/yoshizow/global-pygments-plugin] Though it is considered a separate package, not part of GLOBAL proper, we included it for user's convenience. <end quote> But https://github.com/yoshizow/global-pygments-plugin says <begin quote> IMPORTANT NOTICE! global-pygments-plugin is now bundled with GNU GLOBAL. The development continues in the GLOBAL community and you can find the latest code there. This repository is no longer maintained and just remain for reference purposes. <end quote> 2. Line 30 of /usr/share/gtags/script/pygments_parser.py is EXUBERANT_CTAGS = "/usr/bin/etags" For me, etags is provided by the emacs package, instead of ctags / universal-ctags. etags does not accept the -x flag (line 142 of pygments_parser.py). So the command "gtags --gtagslabel=pygments" gives an error, while "gtags --gtagslabel=universal-ctags" works without problems. Would it be a good idea to just change etags to ctags in the above definition? Thanks, Mandar.
