+I've been using <B>Exuberant Ctags, version 1.5, by Darren Hiebert</B> for the
+past little bit now and really like this a lot.  As the name implies, it does
+a pretty thorough job of scouring your source files for all sorts of useful
+stuff -- function declarations, typedefs, enum's, variable declarations, macro
+definitions, enum/struct/union tags, external function prototypes, and so
+forth.  It continues on in the time honored tradition of providing a bazillion
+options, but not to fear:  it's default behavior is sane and savvy and
+provides a very nice OOBE*.

+<h1>Exuberant Ctags User Feedback</h1>
+<ul>
+<li><b><i>23 Jul 2004</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Exuberant ctags is incredible!  It is making my life so much easier.  I
+    told my friends about it and they love it too.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Thank-you!
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>11 Jan 2004</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I've been extending support for the D programming language (you gave me a
+    diff a while back) and going over this code its the cleanest C-code I've
+    ever seen!  Adding support is a breeze , they should use this code to
+    teach :).  Mas limpio amigo.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>13 Aug 2003</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I want to thank you for the support and also say that your ctags is a very
+    good tool. I haven't seen any other similiar free software yet that's
+    nearly as clean and useful for this problem.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>20 Mar 2003</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Ctags is great and i've been using it for years in c/c++ projects.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>17 Mar 2003</i></b>
+    <p>
+     Every since I have started working on a large C++ application
+     (over 600 src files) I have become a devoted user of ctags.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>30 Jan 2003</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Hi Darren, congratulations on ctags!  It's a wonderful tool.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>14 Nov 2002</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I am using ctags in my development since a long time. And I am addicted to
+    its use.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>13 Nov 2002</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thank you for writing ctags! Ever since I started using ctags together
+    with vim a couple of weeks ago to keep track of the sources we're writing,
+    it's become nearly indispensable. Instead of grepping through sources to
+    find where subroutines are defined, I can just double-click on an
+    identifier and jump to the right place. Then Ctrl+T takes me back to where
+    I was.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    All this only possible because of tags files... and ctags is configurable
+    enough that it can parse not only C but also such things as JAM screens in
+    ASCII format or our programs' message file format. And because the source
+    was available, I could hack it to recognise the brand of Fortran that is
+    in use in the legacy code we maintain... the default Fortran mode didn't
+    work (probably because of extensions in the implementation).
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>23 Sep 2002</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thanks for the fix - very quick!!  Ctags is a great tool, and the support
+    is impressive :)
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>28 Aug 2002</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thank you (and all those who helped you) for a wonderful
+    program.  I have used it _many_ times to navigate through c/c++
+    code (using vim) and was very pleased to learn today that it
+    supports python code too (if only I had learned this 3 years ago
+    ... oh well <g>).
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>2 Mar 2002</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Great work on ctags, I use it everyday and is an invaluable tool to a
+    programmer.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>14 Nov 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I really like the Exuberant Ctags program.  We [are] all indebted to
+    Darren Hiebert for providing us with such a fine program.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>5 Nov 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    CTags is great. I use it all the time now, and I
+    have no idea how I got by without it before.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>3 Nov 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    First of all, let me thank you for Exuberant Ctags.  I use this on a daily
+    basis and couldn't imagine life without it.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>23 Oct 2001</i></b>
+    <p>

+    Your Ctags is by far the best ctags around.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>29 May 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Hi, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your ctags
+    implementation. I have used it for a few months now, and I can safely say
+    it rocks! I have introduced it to everyone at work, and we're all ecstatic
+    about it. People use it for Java, ASP, JavaScript and SQL development.
+    Thanks to the ingenious plug-and-play support for adding parsers, I had no
+    trouble adding parsers for JavaScript and SQL....
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    CTags is now one of the programs I could not survive without, so once
+    again, a big thank you!

+<li><b><i>15 Apr 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    BTW very impressive tool - I started using it with vim at work after
+    seeing the 5.0 announcement and have found it a "must have".
+    </p>
+    <p>[<i>United Kingdom</i>]</p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>27 Feb 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I want to thank you again for ctags.  It keeps getting better and better;
+    I get so used to the development environment made possible by tags in our
+    C source, it's a blessing to be able to use the same habits whether it's
+    C, perl, shell, or whatever.
+    </p>
+<li><b><i>2 Feb 2001</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Couldn't live w/o ctags. I don't know how I went so long without it.
+    </p>
+<li><b><i>26 Sep 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    In a new job and new to Unix, I was afraid I would have to write my own
+    source analysis tools. Disappointed that the default version of ctags failed
+    to properly identify the oddly formatted function definitions in my source I
+    was thrilled to find your Exuberant Ctags! The clouds have parted and the
+    sun is peeking through.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Thank you for your kind contribution to the free software library. Know that
+    your work continues to make my life a little easier. I appreciate this.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    May lady luck shine on you.
+    </p>
+<li><b><i>18 Aug 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Hi,
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    you mention on your web site that you've had no reports of your program
+    being used in Antarctica, guess what?
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    I work for the British Antarctic Survey on software which runs a
+    scientific radar system down at Halley (76 south, 26 west), Antarctica.
+    The radar is controlled by a huge and complex system called Radops, on top
+    of the QNX operating system.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Basically ctags makes writing new software and maintaining the system much
+    easier, thanks.  I had previously relied on a horrible system of scripts
+    to find function definitions.
+    </p>
+    <p>[<i>Antarctica</i>]</p>
+<li><b><i>4 Jul 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thank U for the fact to support Python in ctags.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Recently I was puzzled in the case that I can't use ctags in python old
+    version.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    When I visited your site, I got the bright hope!!
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    I'm the fan of CTAGS!!
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    May the force with U.
+    </p>

+<li><b><i>23 Jun 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I've been a VIM user for years (and a VI user for a long time), and
+    finally today I decided to play w/ the ctags that came w/ my RedHat
+    6.1 installation, and I was impressed to say the least, I kicked
+    myself for not using it before.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Then I found out (on Freshmeat.net) that there was a new version (4.0)
+    with some more languages supported. Downloaded it, compiled and tested
+    it w/ some awk and python code, worked great. And as I am a PHP-head,
+    I stole some of the code from the awk and the python files and made a
+    file to process php classes and functions, nothing revolutionary, but
+    it works.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Your code is clear, so even a dumb programmer like me could figure out
+    what was going on, modified the appropriate files, and got the
+    modified ctags working in under half and hour. I am including the
+    "<code>diff -c</code>" files so you can patch your code.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    When I get some more time to play w/ ctags (downloaded at 2:50am, it
+    is 3:30am now), I'll add more to the <code>php.c</code> so it'll recognize
+    methods, variable definitions, etc.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Great tool man!
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>12 Jun 2000</i></b>

+    First, LOVE ctags!!!
+    Now that I've buttered you up ... just kidding ... I LOVE ctags!� ;-)
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>05 Jun 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    First, thanx for producing the useful CTAGS tool.  My colleagues and I use
+    it all the time, and it comes in very handy when reviewing software source
+    files that have been written by others.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>16 May 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    First let me thank you (over and over again) for the Exuberant ctags
+    you've written for the variety of platforms.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>10 May 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thank you for the wonderful ctags program. I'm using it
+    for a parser I'm writing that works with C/C++ code....
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    PS. I know you've heard this several times also, but your
+    code is really easy to read, and makes the whole process of
+    understanding so much... nicer. Thanks again.
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>10 Apr 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Thanks for doing such a wonderful job; this ctags is *FAR* superior to the
+    stock one that came with the system (HP-UX).
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>02 Feb 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Exuberant ctags is just what I have been looking for for ages - I have
+    been trying to do it all in Perl (albeit wrongly no doubt with numerous
+    regex's) but I must say ctags is spot on!
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>26 Jan 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I've been looking at your code, and I'm very impressed, and I'm not easily
+    impressed.

+</li>
+<li><b><i>13 Jan 2000</i></b>
+    <p>
+    Your ctags utility allows for much better software engineering practices -
+    and without being tied to the heavyweight utilities provided by compiler
+    manufacturers. We will be using ctags as a major component for our C++
+    build process. It now allows us to define error and message enumerators on
+    a per-class basis rather than as a global resource. Also, many thanks for
+    your very prompt attention in the whole area of technical support.

+    <p>
+    Many thanks for making the ctags package freely available. Its a
+    great package. I particularly like the C++ support. I'm working on
+    a telecommunications system with approximately 150 C++ classes.
+    Being able to immediately get to the definition of C++ items
+    easily and quickly via ctags makes work a joyful experience.
+    </p>

+<li><b><i>19 Mar 1999</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I use your ctags here at work, and wanted to thank you for writing such a
+    nice software package.  I like it so much more than the normal ctags
+    program.... Thank you so much for writing such a great package!
+    </p>
+</li>
+<li><b><i>05 Mar 1999</i></b>
+    <p>
+    I am just glad that such great software is avaiable out there.  Most ctags
+    on Unix simply blow chunks!  Yours is absoulutely fantastic and has saved
+    me numerous hours of wasted time. I have even managed to get the project
+    managament here to make it sort of a standard, though it had to be
+    installed as vtags so it would not confuse the curmudgeons still using the
+    broken ctags that comes with the system.  When used with vim, it works
+    absolutely fantastic.  I hope I am not gushing here. :)

+    Hi....
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Thank you very much for your quick reply
+    and detail explanation.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Since I received your mail I have spent time to make simple shell
+    script which should be executed in root hierarchy in project, create 2
+    files ( one for making "tags" in root hierarchy and subdirectories
+    previously listed, the other is ".vimrc" file for setting VIM to update
+    necessary "tags" files when program source file is saved ), and making
+    symbolic link of .vimrc to each subdirectories. It's simple for veteran,
+    As for me, novice in shell script, It's an excellent accomplishment.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    I used to think before that the internet is for someone who find

+    better world. Thank you again.....

+    <p>
+    I just spent the last few days integrating your Ctags program into our
+    build environment here.  On NT, Visual C++'s browse files don't work
+    because our project is too large.  So, I wrote a plug-in for Visual Studio
+    to use a tags file instead.  We are traditionally a Unix house and use
+    tags elsewhere.  Anyway, Ctags goes through our source in about 8 minutes
+    and generates a 20meg+ tags file (with lots of options turned off).
+    That's pretty impressive speed and thoroughness.

+    First of all, let me congratulate you on the terrific 2.0 release of
+    ctags with C++ support.

+    I have just completed the task of changing Zeus [Win95 editor] to
+    support for your new tag file format and I have to say that I am very
+    impressed with your ctags.exe program. In fact it is just amazing!

+    I would like to congradulate you on your implementation of Exuberant Ctags.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    I have added master tag files for everything in /usr/include and I have
+    a cron job to build master tag files for the linux kernel(which makes for
+    highly productive hack sessions when you have nearly the entire kernel
+    at your fingertips). I often wonder how I got along for so many years
+    without it! In fact, I have converted users of the dreaded Microsoft(tm)
+    MSDEV(tm) IDE(probably a TM here too) to VIM-5.0 for NT(tm) along with
+    your implmentation of ctags because it was easier for them to navigate
+    around the code!
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Now, whenever I use a ctags that isn't yours, I feel crippled in my ability
+    to write good code quickly. I love your enhancments to it.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Please keep up the good work! The world needs people like you.

+    I love the fact that if one really hates some piece of software, they
+    can get third party stuff written by people like you that are ten times
+    better than the original product.
+    ...Anyway. Once again, I thank you for writing such a valuable piece
+    of art, and that is really what it is.

+    After doing a search on the web for 'ctags' I found your

+    Wow!
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    I've been a vi/vim/ctags user for about 12 years now. Most of
+    those 12 years I've been frustrated by various tags generators and
+    wished someone would combine all the different features into a single
+    program. And have it work. I've never found the time/energy to tackle
+    that one (I've tackled enough other extracurricular programming). But,
+    now you've done it! And in a big way!
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Hats off, I bow to you and send many grateful thanks.

+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Your new ctags is very very excellent.  Usually if I want to insert the
+    <code>enum</code>'ed variable into tags file, I always had to
+    "<code>grep/awk/grep/awk/grep/awk/</code>", then "<code>:%!sort</code>"
+    in vi... a lot of trouble to me.  Furthermore, it can give me all the
+    global variables, how excellent your package is!  And another thing.. is
+    If a source file is something like this,
+    <code>typedef void (*func_t)(const char **b, int c);</code>
+    Then other ctags gives me a very very strange results to me, on the
+    contrary your ctags gives me exact results.

+    I only downloaded your package about 2 hours ago, so there must be a lot

+    Wow!  I've just tried this out, and despite being the very first beta
+    release of this program, it already seems to be the best ctags program
+    I've seen.  Up to now I have been using the ctags that came with elvis,
+    and I've just compared the output "tags" files.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    The elvis ctags had lots of little tags for things that shouldn't have had
+    tags (e.g. "<code>if</code>", "<code>return</code>", "<code>TRUE</code>",
+    etc.), but this new ctags doesn't produce tags for those.  It does find
+    several tags though that the elvis ctags could not (e.g.
+    "<code>insstr</code>" in the vim code!).
+    </p>

+    Wow!  All the bugs I reported last time have been fixed :-)  It does
