I have a "tags" file of function definitions in the `R' language
(https://www.r-project.org). function names can contain periods, so I have
lines such as
disp.array fzrutils/R/disp.array.R /^disp.array <- function ($/;" f
in the "tags" file. my `.vilerc' contains
set tags {path_to_the_tags_file}
set tagrelative
`vi -t disp.array' does not work as expected but reacts the same way it
does when a non-existent tag is specified (just reporting the read-in
config files: "Reading ~/vile.rc" etc.). tags not containing a `.' in the
function name work just fine. `vim -t disp.array' does the expected even
if the `.' is present in the name.
Am I missing something or is this a bug?
seen with vile version 9.8o for darwin14.3.0.
thank you
joerg
PS: I also presume, there is a small `ctags' bug here. the search pattern
probably should backslash-protect the period in order to actually only
match `disp.array' verbatim rather than
disp{any-single-character}array, no? otherwise one might jump to the wrong
tag/file/position.
