I re-read the manual and tried the call again on some hefty source files: Nothing again.
This time, however, I think I pinpointed my problem: my Geany version does not have the R parser. Time to update! Please disregard the previous messages.

Sorry to pester again, but what I have been having issues with is in your step [2] AKA: geany -g tagfile rfile Where does the tagfile come from? Thanks again, Jon
Thats the output file that it is creating. you can list several rfiles and all the tags will go in the same tagfile.
Please read the manual regarding tagfile naming convention and where to put it if you want it automatically loaded, otherwise you can manually load it.

I have tried various [options] iterations of "geany -g [options]" as well as trying the import tags command from inside geany on outputs from R's "rtags()" function, and I just cannot seem to get tags for R.
Step 1, if you open an R file do you get symbols in the sidebar?
Yes it does. Here on 0.20 (svn >= r5271).
Step one tick :-)
This tests that Geany's R tag parser is in fact working. But I'm not sure how much information it gathers, it looks pretty simple.
Step 2. to get tags for files that you don't want to have open all the time (eg libraries) you use geany -g tagfile rfile
Did this step work?
The tagfile has to be named correctly as per the documentation and located in one of the places described in the documentation then
Geany
has to be restarted and it should load the tags.
If you want to use a different source of tags such as rtags you will have to ensure that the format conforms to that described in the
Geany
documentation or convert it yourself.
The rtags() function 'parses R code files (using R's parser) and produces tags in Emacs' etags format'. Are you aware of examples or scripts to convert 'etags' tags to 'geany' tags?
No, thats why I said you need to convert it yourself, sorry. My googles of emacs tags format in the past have been somewhat unproductive, but maybe you can read the source. Geany also doesn't document tagmanager format (the more complex of its two formats) either.

This is likely because I don't understand how tags are parsed nor do
I
understand how geany parses tags compared to other IDEs. Has anyone gotten this to work? If so, could you spell it out for a tagging newbie?
