*TagsMenu.txt*   Plugin to add all known tags to a menu.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is a cut-and-paste of the TagsMenu help file that is packaged in the attached zip file.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

PURPOSE                                             *TagsMenu-purpose*

This plugin will find all the tags in the current file, and make a menu of these tags.  Each menu item is a move command to that tag (not actually a :tag command, but a /unique search pattern/ to that tag).


REQUIREMENTS                                        *TagsMenu-requirements*

The only requirement for this plugin to work is that Exuberant Ctags (see |ctags|) version 5.x is installed somewhere in your path.  If you do have it installed but not in your path, you could also set the |TagsMenu_ctagsCommand| to explicitly point to your ctags installation.  No other external requirements are necessary.


INSTALLATION                                        *TagsMenu-installation*

To add the plugin, see the vim help on the subject |add-global-plugin| (:h add-global-plugin).  To add the accompanying help file, see the vim help on the subject |add-local-help|.


EXECUTION                                           *TagsMenu-execution*

Automatic execution:  the plugin will automaticly execute (depending on the value of the |TagsMenu_useAutoCommand| option) when a buffer is entered of a recognized filetype (see |TagsMenu-filetypes|).

Manual execution:  there are two ways to manually force the recalculation of the menu:
    <leader>t
        - this mapping depends on the value of <leader> for your configuration.  By default it is ''.  See |mapleader|.
    menu Tags -> Rebuild Tags Menu
        - this will only appear if the tags menu has already been created.


REGOGNIZED FILETYPES                                *TagsMenu-filetypes*

The current list of recognized |filetypes| is limited to the list of types recognized by ctags.  These include: asm, awk, c, cpp, cxx, sh, cobol, eiffel, fortran, java, lisp, make, pascal, perl, php, python, rexx, ruby, scheme, tcl, and vim.
