Hi,

  Semantic uses files explicitly included into a C file as a sort of
search optimization to find things more quickly.  It has a nice side
effect of showing you the definition that the C compiler would
actually use.

  The "find the implementation" part is on my todo list.  The problem
is that Semantic may not have parsed the file with the definition, and
there is no way to know what of the many files in a project may have
the definition.  I'd like to use EDE to help with this part.

  Anyway, it is possible, Semantic could have this info to be used,
but no one has written that specific interface for senator yet.

You can use semantic-mru-bookmark mode, which is enabled with the
code-helpers.  Use C-x B (capital B) to jump to some tag you have
recently been in.  If you use senator-jump, then it will default to
that last place.  The history contains all the tags you dallied in.

Thanks so far Eric for the as always precious informations.

Best regards.
