Re: [Ctags] Vim & multiple functions definitions

[Darren H. <Darren@DarrenHiebert.com>]

Nikos,

Ctags will place any duplicate tags found into the tag file. It is not  
possible to disable the generation of duplicate tags, so this has to  
be happening. It is always up to the editor to decide what to do with  
the duplicates. In Vim, this is done by using either the ":ts  
<tag>" (tag select) command, or via the "g^]" (i.e. Ctrl-]) command  
(jump to tag under cursor, but show list of matches to select from if  
more than one match). There are other similar commands, but these will  
demonstrate the capability within Vim. Do a ":h tag-command" in Vim to  
learn more.

Regards,
Darren
