Emacs TAGS

[Vlad Dumitrescu (QRV)]

Hi,

I only had little time to look at EDE and friends, but I am already impressed! Already Speedbar adds a lot of useability to Emacs.

I for one am interested in Erlang bindings. And I will certainly ask a lot of questions if it doesn't install smoothly :-)

best regards,
Vlad

Good day,

I wrote Erlang BNF gramma for Emacs Semantic package
(http://cedet.sourceforge.net, used in Emacs JDE, ECB and other packages)
some times ago so  most Semantic functionality works well with Erlang:

- menu of module definitions, records and functions;

- navigation between function clauses (next, previous, jump to, search);

- function doc generation.

Many others could be easily added.

I can post it to mail list if somebody is interested in it.

Best Regards,
