Thanks!

I really like the idea of using @ for scope info. Maybe in the "interactively filtering" tool (that comes in the future), we can let the user type @string to filter tags whose scope contains string.

I have 2 more ideas:

But that's for the future. For now, thanks for your work!

Truncate the long __anon** parts in scope and typeref info.

Showing anon** in an xref buffer can be useful. You can do "M-." on anon** to jump to the definition.

I see. It's still useful for citre-jump and citre-peek though. We can have a switch for it.

I just tried the situation you described. I can jump to an anonymous tag by M-., but citre-peek will show me the definition of the line, not the symbol at point.

I'm thinking should we let citre-peek grab the symbol at point in annotations in xref buffer.
