Did they mean ctags?
Some development environments (IDE's) for Linux have that kind of thing. It's a pane with all of the functions listed.

www.freshmeat.net and search for C or C++ IDE. They work only under a given windowing environment, e.g. gnome, kde....

Also UltraEdit, which runs under Windows, will show a window that lists all of the functions in a given C file. You can download a demo version, and use it to look at the source file(s) you want to check.

www.ultredit.com

I think what those folks are talking about is nm. nm lists all of the symbols in a compiled C binary, if it has not been stripped. It also lists all of the external entry points, all of the global variables. I have never seen one that does this for C source.

They may also mean ctags - this creates an index file of functions. The somewhat human readable file is usually just called tags. Maybe you can use that. The first "column" is a list of functions, and you can write some perl or sed to extract the names.

platform::shell(n)					       Tcl Bundled Packages						platform::shell(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       platform::shell - System identification support code and utilities

SYNOPSIS

       package require platform::shell ?1.1.4?

       platform::shell::generic shell
       platform::shell::identify shell
       platform::shell::platform shell
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The platform::shell package provides several utility commands useful for the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell.

       This  package  allows the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell different from the shell running the package. The only
       requirement is that the other shell (identified by its path), is actually executable on the current machine.

       While for most platform this means that the architecture of the interrogated shell is identical to the architecture of  the  running  shell
       this  is  not generally true. A counter example are all platforms which have 32 and 64 bit variants and where a 64bit system is able to run
       32bit code. For these running and interrogated shell may have different 32/64 bit settings and thus different identifiers.

       For applications like a code repository it is important to identify the architecture of the shell which will  actually  run  the  installed
       packages, versus the architecture of the shell running the repository software.

COMMANDS

       platform::shell::identify shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::identify, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::generic shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::generic, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::platform shell
	      This command returns the contents of tcl_platform(platform) for the specified Tcl shell.
