`mkid' TODO - Future directions
* Portability
- Fix filenames.c to handle non-UNIX file names properly
(notably DOS & OS/2).
- Fix assumption that (sizeof (int) == sizeof (long))
* all query interfaces
- add environment variable for setting default ID file name.
* lid
- use "long long" (if the compiler supports it) integer comparisons
in find_number().
- generalize the command-line interface for different behaviors.
User passes a command-format string for operating on the results
of a query:
%p = pattern, %f = crunched file list, %F = uncrunched file list
filename list options:
{,} -vs- expanded; space -vs- newline separator
pattern list options:
tokens -vs- regexp
Recommend the following aliases to emulate old behavior:
alias lid="findid --format='echo %p %f'"
alias eid="findid --format='vi +/\\<%p\\>/ %F'" # for vi users
alias gid="findid --format='egrep \\<%p\\> %F'"
alias aid="findid --format='fgrep -i %p %F'"
alias pid="findid --format='echo %p %f' -f"
alias fid="findid --format='echo %t ' -f"
* mkid & lid
- store & retrieve floating point literals
- automatically crack (optionally gzipped or compressed) tar files, so
you can index and search archived source without having to unpack it.
* mkid
- (Optinally?) store tokenized contents of comments.
- Store attributes with symbols: type, func, variable struct-tag
enum-tag, keyword, etc. Store caller/callee relationships between
identifiers. Indicate which files have defns vs. uses. This info
is needed to support a cscope interface.
- Add times(2) results to statistics output.
- treat \ specially for TeX files and do likewise with @ for Texinfo.
* gscope
- add a cscope work-alike query interface
- rewrite scanners to be scanner/parsers that can distinguish defn
from use, lvalues from rvalues, types from vars from funcs from macros.
* grep
- Hack GNU grep to use a mkid database for hints about which files to
search.
