Hmm, if you had a file called .tags in the current directory, then it was automatically used when you used a tag command. (*) But it looks like there's now also a set option like this: :tags tagfile1 tagfile2 ... if I read the man page correctly. You create the tags file with the ctags command. I've had problems with ctags/vi compatibility on occasion, which usually relates to the tag file format not being understood by the vi version, usually due to extra fields in the tags file (like a comment at the end of each line, for example). luke (*) I have a script that creates a tags file in each directory in a source tree, merges them all together, changes the file pathname to be the absolute pathname for it, and then hard links them all together, so that you can jump from any symbol to any other, anywhere in the source tree. Quite handy. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
