Cscope is a free and open source text screen based source code browser.
Here are some key features of "Cscope":
Allows searching code for:
· all references to a symbol
· global definitions
· functions called by a function
· functions calling a function
· text string
· regular expression pattern
· a file
· files including a file
· Curses based (text screen)
· An information database is generated for faster searches and later reference
· The fuzzy parser supports C, but is flexible enough to be useful for C++ and Java, and for use as a generalized 'grep database' (use it to browse large text documents!)
· Has a command line mode for inclusion in scripts or as a backend to a GUI/frontend
· Runs on all flavors of Unix, plus most monopoly-controlled operating systems.
