ctags: using with nedit: (1) jumping to function calls? (2) command
line switches? (3) Exuberant ctags?

I'm trying to learn to use ctags (with nedit, to review the nedit source
code), and have some questions:
1. I've got things working partially in that when I select a function, I can
press <ctrl>d to get to the definition. I thought (or hoped) that I could
also go the other way, that is from the definition jump to each place where
the function was called. So far I can't do that. Is that a capability of
ctags / nedit? (Is that a limitation in nedit?)
2. So far I've been indexing the files using ctags with no command line
switches. I suspect I should use some or all of the following:
-d, --defines
-g, --globals
-m, --members
-t, --typedefs
-T, --typedefs-and-c++
What do you use / recommend?
3. Would Exuberant ctags provide any additional functionality?
Thanks!
