# Long term plans for the easytags Vim plug-in

 * Automatically index C headers when /usr/include/$name.h exists?

 * Integration with my unreleased project plug-in so that when you edit any file in a project, all related files are automatically scanned for tags?

 * Make `g:easytags_autorecurse` accept the following values: 0 (only scan the current file), 1 (always scan all files in the same directory) and 2 (always recurse down the current directory)?

 * On Microsoft Windows (tested on XP) GVim loses focus while `ctags` is running because Vim opens a command prompt window. Also the CursorHold event seems to fire repeatedly, contradicting my understanding of the automatic command and its behavior on UNIX?! This behavior doesn't occur when I use the integration with my `shell.vim` plug-in.

 * I might have found a bug in Vim: The tag `easytags#highlight_cmd` was correctly being highlighted by my plug-in (and was indeed included in my tags file) even though I couldn't jump to it using `Ctrl-]`, which caused:

    E426: tag not found: easytags#highlight_cmd

   But immediately after that error if I do:

    :echo taglist('easytags#highlight_cmd')
    [{'cmd': '/^function! easytags#highlight_cmd() " {{{1$/', 'static': 0,
    \ 'name': 'easytags#highlight_cmd', 'language': 'Vim', 'kind': 'f',
    \ 'filename': '/home/peter/Development/Vim/vim-easytags/autoload.vim'}]

   It just works?! Some relevant context: I was editing `~/.vim/plugin/easytags.vim` at the time (a symbolic link to `~/Development/Vim/vim-easytags/easytags.vim`) and wanted to jump to the definition of the function `easytags#highlight_cmd` in `~/.vim/autoload/easytags.vim` (a symbolic link to `~/Development/Vim/vim-easytags/autoload.vim`). I was already editing `~/.vim/autoload/easytags.vim` in another Vim buffer.
