;;; History:

;; 2002-08-01: I've tired of tracking database description elements
;; (such as `(define-tables ...)'); so I decided to use `etags'.  But
;; its hard (if possible) to create regexp to match against RDMS' table
;; specs.  So I wrote `within-database' syntax extension and now I can
;; simply use something like:

;; $ etags -l scheme \
;;         -r '/ *(define-\(command\|table\) (\([^; \t]+\)/\2/' \
;;         source1.scm ...

;; ... and get TAGS table with all of my database commands and tables.
