NAME

mtags - create a tags file for Modula-2 sources

SYNOPSIS

mtags name ...

DESCRIPTION

Mtags makes a tags file for ex(1) from the specified Modula-2 sources. Note that either program modules and implementation modules should be given or just definition modules to avoid name clashes. A tags file gives the locations of specified objects (in this case procedures) in a group of files. Each line of the tags file contains the procedure name, the file in which it is defined, and a scanning pattern used to find the procedure definition. These are given in separate fields on the line, separated by blanks or tabs. Using the tags file, ex can quickly find these procedure definitions.

DIAGNOSTICS

Mtags issues warnings if equally-named procedures are found. In this case they may be find only by giving a fully-qualified name which includes all enclosing modules and procedures.
