Re: make gtags.vim work for any dir

[Andrey Butirsky]

Hi Shigio, isn't it you who wrote gtags.vim?
I just use it from Vim as it intended to be used, which is described in
Global doc:
https://www.gnu.org/software/global/globaldoc_toc.html#Vim-editor
The only difference is I can run Vim not only within the project
directory, but from any place. The Global will still work for my project
files.

Feel free if you have any more questions!
