Dan, I hope that you're the right guy to get this, if not I suppose that bug-gnu-emacs' reader will ship this on. It would be nice if TAGS would try and guess what you wanted to see with M-. Perhaps a REGEXP could be put in a hook on a major mode dependent variable to do this. For example, if "." is my cursor in "(foo (bar x (* 3 x)) . (bax)) I'd love M-. to default to "foo". Second, I'd like to see M-. search the tags in a closest match first manner. If I have two tags, "P" and "P-FOO" and I do a M-. on "P" I'd like to see the "P" tag first, as it is an exact (or closer fit). Finally, I'm curious about how you are going to build an extendable ETAGS. Thanks, Brian
