source editing environment for TDE

KScope is a TDE front-end to Cscope. It provides a source-editing environment
for large C projects. KScope is focused on source editing and analysis.

KScope is built around an efficient mechanism for code-navigation, which
allows the user to run queries on the code.

The types of queries KScope can run include:
  * Get all references to a symbol
  * Find the definition of a symbol                                                              * Find all functions called by or calling to a function
  * Find an EGrep pattern                                                                        * Find all files #including some file
                                                                                              These queries are handled by an underlying Cscope process. KScope simply
serves as a front-end to this process, feeding it with queries, and parsing                    its output into result lists. The items in those lists can later be selected
to open an editor at the matching line.                                                        .

 * Tag list for every open editor                                                               * Call-tree window
