Kate CTags Plugin is a software ported from KDevelop 3.3.5's CTags plugin, which helps users in improving code navigation and completing code snippets in the Kate text editor.
One of the most notable features of this plugin is that it attempts to locate a 'tags' file when a document is opened or switched with Kate. It does this by searching for the file in the folder containing the document as well as in the folder's ancestors. The level of this search can be controlled via the config page, which makes it easy for users to customize their search preferences.
Another feature of this plugin is that the 'ctags' view now shows the location of the tags file and allows for the file to be loaded. This is very useful for developers who need quick access to the tags file.
In the latest release of the Kate CTags Plugin, several new features have been added. These include the addition of "--extra=+q" to default ctags args, the use of absFilePath to ensure that duplicates are not opened when opening a file, and the ability to not prepend tags file path if the file starts with '/'. All of these new features make the plugin even more useful for developers who want to increase their productivity and efficiency.
Overall, the Kate CTags Plugin is an excellent software tool that comes with a variety of features that are designed to make the lives of developers easier. From its ability to locate tags files to its customizable search preferences, this plugin is a must-have for any serious developer.
