I think it's better to use a reasonable text editor here; I used Textpad.  I
don't think there's anything too special about it, but it does have "Search

definition), and the folder (R-devel/src on my system), and then I only get
six hits:  two definitions and 4 uses. That's a lot better than 3
screenfuls.

 Of course. Emacs + Etags. Then it's about four keystrokes :)

But of course to reduce "Search for F77_CALL" to 4 keystrokes you need to be able to do Lempel-Ziv encoding in your head; that's what I hate about Emacs.
