I am a regular gVim user on Windows, but don't do much more than install it, set up my small _vimrc
file, and go.
Now I am trying to both understand gVim Omni completion, and get it to work (I found out about it via haXe).
Reading :help new-omni-completion
, I saw something about ctags
.
But going to the ctags site, their site confused me.
What does ctags
do, why do I want it?
And the most important part: how do I install it?
The page and docs that came with the source + binary archive I downloaded are confusing about installing (and seem to focus mostly on Linux, though I'm using Windows). Most of them talk about compiling from source, and don't say what to do with the resulting binary (which the archive I downloaded already contained, pre-compiled).
