[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Rewrite Python standard library tags creation script for Python 3 (PR #3039)

[Jiří Techet]

Maybe to clarify - as outlined here https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3049#issuecomment-991886155 I would suggest switching to the ctags file format. That however doesn't mean that we have to necessarily use ctags to generate such files. We can still use Geany or whatever scripts to write the tag files, just in a different format (I think Geany processes includes and parses the included files automatically which I think ctags doesn't do and might be shame to lose that functionality). The ctags file format is pretty simple and generating it ourselves shouldn't be hard to do.
