# Note: Emacs TAGS file can be read by Vim if the feature
# +emacs_tags was enabled while compiling Vim. If your Vim does
# not have this feature, you can try the function below:

# Function to convert from Emacs' TAGS file into Vim's tags file.
# See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ctags on the web and ":help
# ctags" in Vim for details on the two file formats.
# Note: This function only works with a tags file created by the R
# function rtags().
# Arguments:
#   etagsfile = character string with path to original TAGS
#   ctagsfile = character string with path to destination tags
# Example:
#   setwd("/path/to/R-2.11.1/src/library/base/R")
#   rtags(ofile = "TAGS")
#   etags2ctags("TAGS", "tags")
# After the above commands you should be able to jump from on file
# to another with Vim by hitting CTRL-] over function names.
