Emacs Code Browser - A source code browser for Emacs

ECB stands for "Emacs Code Browser".

From the project website at http://ecb.sourceforge.net/:

While Emacs already has good editing support for many modes, its browsing support is somewhat lacking. That's where ECB comes in: it displays a number of informational windows that allow for easy source code navigation and overview.

Installing ECB in emacs 24 in ubuntu

How to unload a mode (e.g. unload ECB to restore winner.el functionality)

I find ECB mode quite useful at times due to its souped up Speedbar and nice code browsing capabilities. Unfortunately, I also heavily rely on winner mode, which is incompatible with ECB. Even after I do M-x ecb-deactivate, all the ECB defuns…

How do people debug in ECB Emacs?

I want to debug in ECB to use its power. I think there is no built in debugging layout for ECB. (Possible useful windows are: stack, breakpoints, locals, threads, gdb command window etc.) Do I need to create a customized layout in ECB or is there…

I'm using ECB with Cedet - and semantic search engine stores tags about the files I visit in its cache files. I'm also using ECB's left-symboldef layout - which shows definition of the tag the cursor is on. In order to do that semantic opens the…

From the get go: sorry if I'm not using the proper emacs terminology -- I'm relatively wet behind the ears in the emacs world. Most of my work in emacs is for programming R, and I'm using ESS and ECB to do so quite happily. I'd like to build a…
