If the cursor is in somewhere within a very long function, is there a way to let Vim tell the user in which function he/she is editing?
By the way, I use taglist but seems that taglist does not auto update where you are even if you have moved the cursor to a different function.
The taglist plugin provides this feature. The function in which
the cursor is currently positioned is highlighted automatically in the list of
functions of taglist.
Make sure that Tlist_Auto_Highlight_Tag is not equal 0 to enable this feature.
‘updatetime’ defines the time of no activity which must elapse before
taglist highlights the current function. Default is 4 seconds.
:help taglist.txt See section "Highlighting the current tag"As a quick test:
Type :TlistHighlightTag to force taglist to highlight the current function.
If this works I suppose that you have disabled the automatic highlighting in any
way (see Tlist_Auto_Highlight_Tag).
