Summary: function index (speedbar)

Initial Comment:
I use the speedbar in xemacs alot to help be jump 
straight down to a function in a source file.  Well i 
actually map it to the mouse...but it would be nice 
to have a speebar (html frame) on the the left or 
right hand side of the source file which has links to 
all of the functions declared in a source file.  
presumably this information is already parsed in a 
manner that you know it is a function def.  this 
could be ignored in header files or contain the index 
of typedefs and #defines or something.

<Edna Most> No Frames! </Edna Most>

Frames are a horrible, horrible invention and should be banned from the
web forever.  And even longer.

Having a function list is not a bad idea, but a simple drop-down box will
work.  Or, if we really want something on the sidebar, please use
CSS/tables.

BTW, in the SQL query provided by mbox, why check both the fileid AND the
filename?  It seems like just the fileid would be sufficient (and a lot
faster!)

Wouldn't be hard.  The sql to find all the symbols defined
in a file is:

select s.symname, i.line, d.declaration from indexes i,
symbols s, declarations d, files f where s.symi
d=i.symid and i.type = d.declid and i.fileid=f.fileid and
f.filename = &quot;filename&quot;;

>From there, it should be easy to spin some HTML and links
round the results and shove it in a sidebar.  Presumably
this would be linked off the source script, so that it would
first generate the source listing, and then add the sidebar
panel.
