folks,

i use emacs cperl mode for writing the perl code.
i am starting to use etags facility. when i search
for a tag using M-. (find-tag) command in emacs, the default
appears to be the word at which the cursor is
located. typical perl function calls we have
are of the form <package>::<function> and that is
selected as the default. but etags needs only <function>
to find the tag. so is there a way to influence 
etags find-tag routine to ignore the <package>::
prefix in the word around cursor and select just <function>
as the default value to look for?

thanks,
-badari
