When browsing through source I want tag file TAGS to be searched for
in the folder of the current file and then up the parent folders.
On my first try it seems this is not working:
set tags=./TAGS,../TAGS,../../TAGS,../../../TAGS,../../../../TAGS
Any ideas?
My guess is that it's probably looking relative to the current
directory, not the current file, and you want the latter. You could use
:set tags=./TAGS,./../TAGS,./../../TAGS
The explicit ./ should make it relative to the file, not the current
directory.
But, it is probably better to try
:set tags=./TAGS;
This uses an upward search which apparently works for the 'tags' option
(:help file-searching).
It is important that 'd' is not in cpoptions. Check this with
:set cpo?
And use
:set cpo-=d
if you need to fix it.
See :help 'tags' for a little more info and cross-references.
Ben.
