Re: [Ctags] Can ctags work with .jar or .zip arvhives?

[Darren H. <dhi...@us...>]

I cannot see what value this would be. Ctags index files consist of  
lines containing the tag, the source file where the tag is defined,  
and a method to locate the line containing the definition for the  
tag. This allows a text editor to jump to the source line where the  
tag is defined. I do not understand what would be generated for  
a .jar or .zip file. A text editor would not be able to do anything  
with whatever information was even related to it.
