Hi,

Does exuberant ctags support elisp these days? It's been a while, but
I remember that a few years ago it did not get elisp right, and did
not support the --regex option from emacs etags. I know this because
Slackware Linux would give me exuberant ctags by default, and it just
did not cut it for me because it barfed on elisp, and my --regex
options for python did not work. If it's changed, I'd use it again.

Cheers!
Shyamal
