[aclug-L] for you programming gurus

[John Reinke <jmreinke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ok. I've been programming on Linux for a while, but I haven't really
utilized any of the many tools I'm sure are available on Linux. I've
already accepted the fact that I'll have to figure out that clunky,
convoluted, everything-and-the-kitchen-sink (X)Emacs.  ;-)  How do you set
the default indentation style, though? I've checked every menu and submenu
I could find...

One thing in particular that I think ought to exist is some tool for
viewing source code. I need to study some code that someone else wrote, and
it involves many files. When I see a function call, I'd like to be able to
go directly to that function code, even if it is in another file.

What other tools does everyone suggest? Up until now, all I've used is a
text editor, make, and gcc. I've already learned how to use CVS, which I
think will get a lot of use.

Thanks,
John
