However, that will not allow me to set ctags.conf in such a way that I could run simple ctags * in given directory with cweb only, c/c++ only or mixed sources with expected results. I just wanted to make my point clear; I do not really need it in this simple case, as long as matched patterns do not appear in the normal c files.
