I would like to be able to query the current file or other project files for symbols based on scope. I would also like to be able to query for symbols with a common instance of a parent scope.

For illustrative purposes I will use JavaScript-like syntax and JS DOM-like API:

// get all atoms in the current document
document.getSymbolsByScope("source.erlang meta.function.erlang meta.structure.tuple.erlang constant.other.symbol.unquoted.erlang");

// get all atoms in the current function
currentFunction = currentScope.getAncestorByScope("source.erlang meta.function.erlang"); currentFunction.getSymbolsByScope("source.erlang meta.function.erlang meta.structure.tuple.erlang constant.other.symbol.unquoted.erlang");

// get all functions in the current module
document.getSymbolsByScope("source.erlang meta.function");

+1 on all of that from me.

Also, if you could find the closest something from the caret, that would be very handy.

LD.

Sounds wonderful.
There's already a way to get the scoped out xml of the current file.
Maybe there's already some kind of xml thing you can use to do it?
Every language on earth parses xml. I'm sure something exists that can be modified to do what you say.

I would love to have something that was really easy to use though.
