ECB is the most complete package to do that. http://ecb.sourceforge.net/ Otherwise, there are also tools such as tags (use etags(1) to build a TAGS index, and use M-. to jump to the definition(s) of a symbol, M-TAB to complete a symbol, etc). Put this in your Makefile: tags etags: find $(SRCDIR) \( \( -name \[#.]\?\* -prune \) \ -o -name \*.h -o -name \*.c \ -o -name \*.hh -o -name \*.hxx -o -name \*.cc -o -name \*.cxx \) \ -print \ | while read f ; do echo $$f ; etags -a -o $(SRCDIR)/TAGS $$f ; done M-x compile RET C-e tags RET and then type or move after the name of a function, and type M-. -- __Pascal Bourguignon__
