GTags And Man Proto (GAMP)

http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4946

SUMMARY

GAMP is a very lightweight Vim completion system for libc functions and virtually any other functions.

REQUIREMENTS

Mandatory:

• Linux-like OS with a shell and a manpage system
• Vim laststatus must be set to 2

Optional:

• GNU Global (its use can be disabled)

FEATURES

• 3 modes:
  • Complete function prototype in completion mode
  • Hint for function prototype in statusline mode
  • Do all of the above when using both modes
• Take definition from all the function manpages from section 2 and 3 ( system and library (including libc) calls )
• Take definition of any function using GNU Global GTags system
• If not using Global GTags, there is no dependency
• Real-time updating and no maintenance required if using gtags.vim
  auto-update feature

INSTALL DETAILS

Inside the GAMP.tar archive are two files that you have to put in the appropriate location of your vim folder (for me, it's $HOME/.vim ). You can do it using your graphical archive manager (like file-roller ), or with the command-line with:

$ tar -xvf  GAMP.tar

to extract the archive, and:

$ cp  doc/gtags-and-man-proto.txt      $HOME/.vim/doc
$ cp  plugin/gtags-and-man-proto.vim   $HOME/.vim/plugin

to copy the files.
