Module textredux.ctags

Displays a filtered list of symbols (functions, variables, …) in the current document using Exuberant Ctags.

Usage

In your init.lua:

local textredux = require 'textredux'
keys.cg = textredux.ctags.goto_symbol -- Ctrl+G

Requirements

Exuberant Ctags needs to be installed and is available in the usual package managers.

Debian/Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install exuberant-ctags

Homebrew on OS X:

brew install ctags

Note that it is possible to add support for additional filetypes in your ~/.ctags, for example LaTeX:

--langdef=latex
--langmap=latex:.tex
--regex-latex=/\\label\{([^}]*)\}/\1/l,label/
--regex-latex=/\\section\{([^}]*)\}/\1/s,section/
--regex-latex=/\\subsection\{([^}]*)\}/\1/t,subsection/
--regex-latex=/\\subsubsection\{([^}]*)\}/\1/u,subsubsection/
--regex-latex=/\\section\*\{([^}]*)\}/\1/s,section/
--regex-latex=/\\subsection\*\{([^}]*)\}/\1/t,subsection/
--regex-latex=/\\subsubsection\*\{([^}]*)\}/\1/u,subsubsection/

This module is based on Mitchell's ctags code posted on the Textadept wiki.
