Message-ID: <7f9b11c90911082253h4defb4acwbb2ea1e42e87c685@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,
I use etags a lot and find it invaluable for navigation in all code -
especially code that I am not familiar with.

I often find functions in several files that have the same name. I
think it would be good if etags could "prefer" find the function in
the buffer where I am calling find-tag from.

In the files below, go to file b and place the cursor at
"default_handler();". Wouldn't it make sense to end up in the the same
buffer?

Anyway, thanks a lot for all good work.

/Mats

file a.c
---------------8<----------------------
#include <stdio.h>

static void default_handler(void)
{
  printf("Default in a!\n");
}

void a(void)
{
  default_handler();
}
---------------8<----------------------


---------------8<----------------------
#include <stdio.h>

static void default_handler(void)
{
  printf("Default in b!\n");
}

int main(void)
{
  default_handler();
  a();

  return 0;
}
