-*** In Perl, packages are tags.  Subroutine tags are named from their
-package.  You can jump to sub tags as you did before, by the sub name, or
-additionally by looking for package::sub.

-*** New language PHP: tags are functions, classes and defines.  If
-the --members option is specified to etags, tags are vars also.

-*** Honour #line directives.  This is useful when dealing with C code
-created from Yacc sources, or with any file created from Cweb source
-files.  When etags tags the generated file, it writes tags pointing to
-the source file.
