    Summary: A C programming language indexing and/or cross-reference tool
    Description: 
    The ctags program generate an index (or "tag") file for C, C++, Eiffel,
    Fortran, and Java language objects found in files.  This tag file allows
    these items to be quickly and easily located by a text editor or other
    utility.  A "tag" signifies a language object for which an index entry is
    available (or, alternatively, the index entry created for that object).
    
    Alternatively, ctags can generate a cross reference file which lists, in
    human readable form, information about the various source objects found
    in a set of language files.
