Re: Automating TAGS file usage

[filebat Mark]

The package of etags-table is quite handy. It automatically loads TAGS file, which is located in the direct/indirect parent directory.

If we register crond jobs to rebuild TAGS periodically, we don't need to worry about the feature of finding function's definition any more.
