Do you mean a ctags file as detailed in the section “Ctags for Enhanced Language Support” of Chapter 14 of the manual?

Here’s the first few lines of my tags file from a rather large C project of mine:

```
!_TAG_FILE_FORMAT 2 /extended format; --format=1 will not append ;" to lines/
!_TAG_FILE_SORTED       1       /0=unsorted, 1=sorted, 2=foldcase/
!_TAG_PROGRAM_AUTHOR    Darren Hiebert  /[email protected]/
!_TAG_PROGRAM_NAME      Exuberant Ctags //
!_TAG_PROGRAM_URL       http://ctags.sourceforge.net    /official site/
!_TAG_PROGRAM_VERSION   5.9~svn20110310 //

Hope this helps!

Would someone be so kind as to offer up a simple example of a "tags" file for text completion with Text File? I have been using clippings for this but have a large group of proper names that would be much more convenient
in a single file.

I have been over the docs but have yet to spy any kind of example.

Thanks,
