*active-finders*

Variable
Summary

Controls how the source finding commands Find Source and Find Tag operate.

Package

dspec

Syntax

*active-finders*

Description

The *active-finders* variable controls how the source finding commands, Find Source and Find Tag, operate. The legal values for the elements of this list are:

:internal

The internal database of definitions performed in this image.

:tags

Prompt for a tags file, when first used.

pathname

Either a tags file or a tags database.

A tags database is a file generated by save-tags-database.

The order of this list determines the order that the results from the finders are combined in -- you would usually want :internal to be the first item on this list, as it contains the up-to-date information about the state of the image. More than one pathname is allowed.
