Dear All, Has anybody tried to use ID Utils (http://www.gnu.org/software/idutils/46) with Python? I've googled, searched the mailing list, and have found nothing.
A silly, simple use of IDUtils with Python code does work, using a language map that says *.py files are text files. But I am wondering if someone has done something more sophisticated. (For instance, I get matches to commented out functions, which I'd rather not, lots of extra stuff is indexed which probably shouldn't, etc). Thanks, R. P.D. ID utils is somewhat like [ce]tags, and has support under Emacs (see section 5.2 of the ID utils manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/idutils/manual/idutils.html#Emacs-gid-interface47 ). One nice feature is that, when searching for matches, it shows the results in a compilation buffer, so you can see where, in each file, the identifier is used, and visit that if you want. I like this a lot better than "tags-search". -- Ramon Diaz-Uriarte Bioinformatics Unit Spanish National Cancer Centre (CNIO) http://ligarto.org/rdiaz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
