I had a look through the taglist.vim plugin, and it appears to
require code for each language it supports, so you can't just add a
definition to ~/.ctags and have it work. The comment block at the
top of the plugin directed me to the plugin's web page, which
explained that users can add support for other languages and which
directed me to this part of the manual:

http://vim-taglist.sourceforge.net/manual.html#taglist-extend

That should tell you what you need to do.

HTH,
