Glancing over the new (to me) Ebrowse documentation it looks as if Ebrowse is quite a bit more powerful than the old etags package. I'd like to have the class (struct and typedef) browsing and completion facilities on typedef names and struct membernames. The Ebrowse documentation doesn't appear to talk about how ebrowse might be used to improve the C language experience... Is is possible to use ebrowse (or etags for that matter) to provide more powerful browsing and manipulation of C code? Am I better off sticking with etags and, perhaps, speedbar? curiously yours, --jfc
