For example: M-. foo-bar.adb RET should open the file foo-bar.adb (wherever it is in the potentially complex directory structure of the project) and leave point at the beginning of the file. This is a feature of find-tag but find-tag is now deprecated in favor of xref-find-definitions; so this feature is missing and xref-find-definitions is not yet a complete replacement for find-tag. Thanks for consideration. -- Ludovic Brenta.
