vim has integration with etags, to allow easy navigation between
declarations and implementations in header/source files.
A helpful tip in vim, is to use Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N in edit mode to perform
auto-completion of the current word.
Another GUI tool that helps with navigating through sources is Source
Navigator (from Red Hat, open source.) Navigator even goes as far as
creating source structure diagrams.
Happy coding.

Besides that, grep is your friend. 'grep -n "Whatiamlookingfor" *' will
give you the file names and line numbers of every occurance of what you
are looking for. Grep is also capable of searching based on regular
expressions so you can do more complicated searches. If you are using
emacs you can run this command from right inside the editor and have the
results displayed in a new buffer. Grep is the answer you are looking for.
You may also find emacs speedbar of some help. If you use X and xemacs
it is a little window that has a navigatable tree. If you have eieio
installed then it will use speedbar to display a tree similar to what
you would find in MSVC.

KDevelop is reputed to be good, but I've not used it myself.

Some text editors, notably vi and Emacs, are able to parse those files
and use them to look up the original "bit of code."
"man ctags" or "man etags" for more details.
Note that the version distributed as etags knows how to cope with
additional languages such as C++, Java, Objective C, Fortran (perhaps
they mean FORTRAN), Ada, several flavors of Lisp, Perl, Python,
Prolog, and even macro assemblers.

Presumably, the documentation you seek might be found in the
documentation set for your favorite flavour of vi.

1. Curses file viewer source code wanted
From inside a C program I'd like to be able to use a function which
"shows a file to a user". It should be curses based, and allow the
user the ability to move around the file (lines up/down, page up/down,
horizantal scroll, etc.).
Does something come to mind? The horizantal scroll sounds quite
difficult, but is extremely important to this application (I'm
planning on displaying tables wider than 80 cols, and it'll be
ridiculous having a emacs/vi type wrap).
Is it sensible to open up one of the few dozen PD editors and hack
at it to do the above? Alternatively one could reprogram the editor
(if it's programmable) to disable all the text-modification features.
Any help will be much appreciated,
-ans.
