NAME

gozilla - force mozilla to display specified part of a source file

SYNOPSIS

gozilla [-b browser][-p][+no] file
gozilla [-b browser][-p] -d name

DESCRIPTION

Gozilla forces mozilla to display specified part of a source file. Gozilla can be used with other browsers like firefox and epiphany.

In advance of using this command, you must execute gtags(1) and htags(1) at the root directory of the project to make tag files. Then you can execute this command anywhere in the project.

First form:
You can specify a source file and optional line number. This syntax is similar to vi(1) and emacs(1).

Second form:
You can specify a definition name directly. The definition name should exist in 'GTAGS'. This option requires 'HTML/MAP' generated by htags(1).

Some browsers require you to load it before executing gozilla.

The following options are available:

+no

-b browser

Gozilla can accept not only source files but also text files, directories, HTML files and even URLs, because it is omnivorous.
