So I think use Emacs my code brower is a good choice. But when I am using ECB, it seems that ECB can't get some tags for my functions, class. What should I do to get some tags for my code? I checked EmacsWiki and it says that we have etags (which comes with emacs), and ExuberantCtags which can generate tags file. And it says that ExuberantCtags is the best choice as it supports more languages and is more robust. So I think I need to use ECB together with ExuberantCtags, is it right? What's your tools?
