more comprehensive ctags definitions for the julia language based on the one in the official julia repository (inclusive vim tagbar)

.vimrc

let g:tagbar_type_julia = {
    \ 'ctagstype' : 'julia',
    \ 'kinds'     : ['a:abstract', 'i:immutable', 't:type', 'f:function', 'm:macro']
    \ }

line 12+ in .ctags is for the SimpleStructs.jl package

based on https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/contrib/ctags

A little example using the great Images.jl library

Thanks a lot for this. I managed to get "jump to tag" working in vim again by removing the (\7, ...) and (\4, ...) in the definitions above. It doesn't seem to like the parameters. Unfortunately, then tagbar doesn't look as nice. Hopefully there is a simple way to have the best of both worlds.

Thanks for this!

Hi, can you get this working if the module is prepended? (like mymodule.myfunction())
I don't know if it's my emacs setup wrong
However, thanks for this :)

I updated this a little bit for Julia 0.6: https://gist.github.com/goerz/4235572a3bc6adfaead06dc8b3c1826f
