        Vim plugin that displays tags in a window, ordered by class etc.
    </div>

    <p>Tagbar is a vim plugin for browsing the tags of source code
    files. It provides a sidebar that displays the ctags-generated
    tags of the current file, ordered by their scope. This means that
    for example methods in C++ are displayed under the class they are
    defined in.</p>

    <h2>Dependencies</h2>
    <p><a href="http://www.vim.org/">Vim 7.0</a><br/>
    <a href="http://ctags.sourceforge.net/">Exuberant ctags 5.5</a></p>

    <h2>Install</h2>
    <p>Extract the archive or clone the repository into a directory in
    your 'runtimepath' or use <a href="http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2332">pathogen</a>.
    Don't forget to run :helptags if you don't use pathogen.<br/><br/>
    If the ctags executable is not installed in one of the directories
    in your $PATH environment variable you have to set the
    g:tagbar_ctags_bin variable, see the documentation for more info.</p>
