hi,

(if you're not using 'vim', look away now..  :-))

most users of 'vim' will be familiar with 'tags' files and the '^]' key combo.
while 'ctags' does not include PovRay SDL, the support is easy to add.  I've
attached an archive containing a source ('sdl.c') and a "diff" to patch a couple
of files.  this first version is v basic, only recognising macros and declare +
local, but usable.

assuming the source[*] for 'ctags-5.8' in '/tmp/ctags-5.8/', extract the archive
in '/tmp/'.  copy/move 'sdl.c' into the ctags directory, and cd into it.  then
  $ zcat ../add.sdl.diff.gz | patch --verbose -p1

that's it.  then the usual './configure  &&  make' etc.

I've installed my copy in my home path, ie '~/bin/', for now.  testing, so far
so good, hope that (some of) you will provide feedback and suggestions for
improvements etc.

enjoy, jr.
