4 .SH SYNOPSIS

5 .B shtags

6 [\fI-mvw\fP] [\fI-t <file>\fP] [\fI-s <shell>\fP] <files>

|
7 .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
8 \fBshtags\fP creates a \fBvi(1)\fP tags file for shell scripts - which
|
|
9 essentially turns your code into a hypertext document. \fBshtags\fP
|
|
10 attempts to create tags for all function and variable definitions,
|
|
11 although this is a little difficult, because in most shell languages,
|
|
12 variables don't need to be explicitly defined, and as such there is
|
|
13 often no distinct "variable definition". If this is the case,
|
|
14 \fBshtags\fP simply creates a tag for the first instance of a variable
|
|
15 which is being set in a simple way, ie: \fIset x = 5\fP.
|
|
16 .SH OPTIONS
|
|
17 .IP "\fB-t <file>\fP"
|
|
18 Name of tags file to create. (default is 'tags')
|
|
19 .IP "\fB-s <shell>\fP"
|
|
20 The name of the shell used by the script(s). By default,
|
|
21 \fBshtags\fP tries to work out which is the appropriate shell for each
|
25402
|
22 file individually by looking at the first line of each file. This won't
|
7
|
23 work however, if the script starts as a bourne shell script and tries
|
|
24 to be clever about starting the shell it really wants.
