NAME

       vifn - edit by function name rather than file name, uses vi

SYNOPSIS

       vifn [filename/]function-name [...]

DESCRIPTION

       vifn  is  a  crude  script  which  uses output from pmccabe(1) to allow
       editing by  function  name  rather  than  file  name.   When  duplicate
       function  names  exist  in more than one file, vifn cycles through each
       one.  Use  filename/  when  multiple  files  contain  identically-named
       functions and you know the one you want.

BUGS

       vifn  uses  the file "pmccabe.out" in the current directory, or creates
       it if not found by running pmccabe on files in the  current  directory.
       Maybe this isn't really a bug, but it could be better.

       vifn  does  not use the $EDITOR environment variable only because there
       are editors which misunderstand vi's +line convention for starting  the
       editor positioned at a specific line.
