Exactly which languages Exuberant Ctags supports may depend on where you
get it from, I suppose. The version currently available on openSUSE 12.1
(which is not the latest openSUSE release, but I need more disk space to
upgrade) supports: Ant Asm Asp Awk Basic BETA C C++ C# Cobol DosBatch
Eiffel Erlang Flex Fortran HTML Java JavaScript Lisp Lua Make MatLab
OCaml Pascal Perl PHP Python REXX Ruby Scheme Sh SLang SML SQL Tcl Tex
Vera Verilog VHDL Vim YACC (as shown by "ctags --list-languages").


Best regards,
Tony.
