gtags-cscope: pseudo cscope which implements the line-oriented interface

NAME

gtags-cscope - pseudo cscope which implements the line-oriented interface

SYNOPSIS

gtags-cscope [-Cqv]

DESCRIPTION

Gtags-cscope is a pseudo cscope which implements the line-oriented interface. You can use this command for various clients instead of true cscope.

Since gtags-cscope is intended to make GLOBAL available through cscope interface, the output is not necessarily the same as cscope.

OPTIONS

The following options are available:

-C, --ignore-case

Ignore letter case when searching.

-q, --quiet

Quiet mode.

-v, --verbose

Verbose mode.

DIAGNOSTICS

Gtags-cscope exits with a non 0 value if an error occurred, 0 otherwise.

BUG

The second field of the output is almost <unknown> since GLOBAL doesn't recognize it. Command 2 (Find functions called by this function) is not implemented.
