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.
