CScope already gives you the information you want. If you want a tool with a lower overhead, running a version of ctags on a collection of source code files will create a tags file listing every global variable, function and structure definition. You can also run nm on the compiled object files to get similar information. -- Diomidis Spinellis Code Quality: The Open Source Perspective (Addison-Wesley 2006) http://www.spinellis.gr/codequality?cup
