find-tag - Find tag, auto-load file and move to tag position
n find-tag "string" (esc t)
find-tag finds the current or given tag (string) in a tags file and goes to the given point, loading the file if necessary. The tag is either the current word under the cursor or a user supplied word if the cursor is not in a word. The buffer containing the tag is popped up in another window and the cursor moved to the tag in the new window.
A tags file is usually created by an external program (e.g. ctags(1)) which stores word references (or tags) and the name of the file containing the tag, with a search string to go to its local. It is an indexing system which is often used in programming.
The argument n can be used to change the default behavior of find-tag described above, n is a bit based flag where:-
0x01
0x02
Two user variables must be defined before find-tag will execute, if either %tag-file(5) or %tag-template(5) are not defined the error message "[tags not setup]" is signaled.
%tag-file(5), %tag-template(5), ctags(1).
