This is a little OT since it really applies to more than just ruby.

I’ve been using Tlist/ctags for a while, and find myself wishing for
more.

If I’ve been editing a series of files in one vim/gvim session, it
keeps a combiled taglist which is nice. What I’d like to be able to do
is select, say a method name, in a file window, and ‘go to’ the
definition, if it’s in the tag list.

Even better, if it’s not then some way to grep the directory
containing the current file, possibly recursively, for the definition,
to look for likely files to add.

I suspect that someone, somewhere has done this, but I can’t seem to
figure out how to express this as a google search.

Unless I’m totally off my rocker, CTRL-] is what you are looking for.

I just run ctags -R (exuberant) and use :tag. Works pretty well.

Yes, I was thrown off by two things:

  1. I didn’t read the doc
  2. The Tlist script seems to run ctags and pipe it somewhere, you need
    to save the tags to get ctrl-] to work.
