RE: How to use etags in emacs

["Drew Adams" <drew.adams@oracle.com>]

By default, Emacs TAGS do not record positions where a function is _called_.
They record only positions where a function (or variable etc.) is _defined_.

I can't speak to your other questions.

None of this has anything to do with Icicles, BTW. Icicles does not change which
tags you have, that is, which locations you can visit. Icicles just makes it
easier to find them and browse among them.
