     CTAGS(CP)		      XENIX System V		     CTAGS(CP)

     Name
	  ctags - Creates a tags file.

     Syntax
	  ctags [ -a ] [ -u ] [ -v ] [ -w ] [ -x ] name ...

     Description
	  ctags makes a tags file for vi(C) from the specified C
	  sources. A tags file gives the locations of specified
	  objects (in this case functions) in a group of files.	 Each
	  line of the tags file contains the function name, the file
	  in which it is defined, and a scanning pattern used to find
	  the function definition. These are given in separate fields
	  on the line, separated by blanks or tabs.  Using the tags
	  file, vi can quickly find these function definitions.

	  If the -x flag is given, ctags produces a list of function
	  names, the line number and file name on which each is
	  defined, as well as the text of that line and prints this on
	  the standard output. With the -x option no tags file is
	  created.  This is a simple index which can be printed out as
	  an off-line readable function index.

	  Files whose name ends in .c or .h are assumed to be C source
	  files and are searched for C routine and macro definitions.

	  Other options are:

	  -w   Suppresses warning diagnostics.

	  -u   Causes the specified files to be updated in tags; that
	       is, all references to them are deleted, and the new
	       values are appended to the file.	 (Beware: this option
	       is implemented in a way which is rather slow; it is
	       usually faster to simply rebuild the tags file.)

	  The tag main is treated specially in C programs.  The tag
	  formed is created by prepending M to the name of the file,
	  with a trailing .c removed, if any, and leading pathname
	  components also removed.  This makes use of ctags practical
	  in directories with more than one program.
