I'm curious if there's any interest in accepting the tagfunc patch (or something similar in spirit) into vim: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/vim_dev/jWXPP2II0YA/lYw3j74snnwJ
My use-case is to make better use of modern static analysis tools: many programming languages have very high quality tools that know exactly where any given source symbol was defined, without having to resort to precomputed ctags-like textual indexes. Unfortunately, these tools are very difficult to integrate into vim, and most vim plugins which add support for these tools cut corners and don't replicate any of ctags' stack-like or tselect behavior, which makes for a pretty terrible UX. I don't have strong opinions on the best way to tackle this problem, but tagfunc seems like a very convenient solution (an alternative might be a mechanism to programmatically push and pop entries from the tag stack). Especially given that this patch has been floating around for a while now, I'd be eager to see it included in vim proper. Carl -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
