Hello,

files.
I don't think that's the case. In my environment, I get the following
results:
---------------------------------------------------------------
$ cat test.sh
test1() {
echo "test1"
}
test1
$ cat test.py
def test2():
print("test2")
test2()
$ gtags
$ global -f test.sh
test1 1 test.sh test1() {
$ global -f test.py
test2 1 test.py def test2():
$ cat gtags.conf
default:\
:ctagscom=/usr/local/bin/ctags:\
:ctagslib=$libdir/gtags/universal-ctags.la:\
:langmap=Python\:.py.pyx.pxd.pxi.scons:\
:langmap=Sh\:.sh.SH.bsh.bash.ksh.zsh.ash:\
:gtags_parser=Python\:$ctagslib:\
:gtags_parser=Sh\:$ctagslib:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Could you please try running gtags(1) with the -v option?
Perhaps .sh and .py files are not being recognized as source code?
