[Asterisk-Dev] Asterisk Code Flow

[James H. Thompson]

Running CTAGS (http://ctags.sourceforge.net/) on the Asterisk source then
loading the codebase into an editor that supports CTAGS may be helpful.
List of editors supporting CTAGS: http://ctags.sourceforge.net/tools.html

Once you've done this, you can just highlight a variable and get a list of everywhere its used, or jump where its defined.
I've used jEdit (http://www.jedit.org/) this way on Windows, and it worked well.
