Use vim tag stack facility #413

Closed ttchin closed 4 years ago

ttchin commented 4 years ago

Describe your question, feature request, or bug.

Is it possible to use vim's original tag stack facility in LeaderF? For instance, I'd like to jump to a tag by pressing Ctrl + ] directly or open a source file by vim +t [tags] which is the original vim behaviour.

The settings in .vimrc could be:

set cscopetag " use cscope as tags command
set cscopeprg='gtags-cscope' " use gtags-cscope instead of cscope

Since LeaderF has automatically genreated the gtags files to the specified directory, how can I add this path to gtags-cscope?

If you use Leaderf gtags, I don't think you need to use cscope.

Leaderf gtags has been a part of my life for my daily work. :) Nevertheless, I think the vim tags command is still very helpful in some scenarios. Just as I demonstrated in the post, I'd like to jump to a specified location in a project's directory by vim +t [tag]. But in current workflow, I have to:

  1. open vim editor
  2. open leaderf rg, type the [tag]
  3. jump to the location

If leaderf could help to add project's gtags - generated to a specified cached directory - to cscope automatically, that would be very neat.

The gtags files generated is under $HOME/.LfCache/gtags/%PATH%OF%YOUR%PROJECT/, where %PATH%OF%YOUR%PROJECT is replacing the / or \ in the path with %.

Suppose you have the following map, 

noremap <C-]> :<C-U><C-R>=printf("Leaderf! gtags -d %s --auto-jump", expand("<cword>"))<CR><CR>

I think you can achieve the same effect as using cscope except that <C-T> can not be used, but you can use <C-O> instead.
