GNU Emacs 23.1.1
I am maintaining someones code. There are many files and directories for the headers and source files.
I am wondering if there is a easy way to use emacs that when I highlight a variable name I can go straight to where it is declared?
Some of the structures I am working in are declared in other header files, rather than go searching for them, I just want to be taken straight to them.
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Look into the
etagscommand which builds a tags database. Once the tag DB is built and loaded, you can useM-.on any keyword to jump directly to the definition.
