Bah missed it :-)
The R source reveals
write.etags <-
function(src,
tokens, startlines, lines, nchars,
...,
shorten.lines = c("token", "simple", "none"))
{
## extra 1 for newline
shorten.lines <- match.arg(shorten.lines)
offsets <- (cumsum(nchars + 1L) - (nchars + 1L))[startlines]
lines <-
switch(shorten.lines,
none = lines,
simple = sapply(strsplit(lines, "function", fixed =
TRUE), "[", 1),
token = mapply(shorten.to.string, lines, tokens))
tag.lines <-
paste(sprintf("%s\x7f%s\x01%d,%d",
lines, tokens, startlines,
as.integer(offsets)),
collapse = "\n")
## simpler format: tag.lines <- paste(sprintf("%s\x7f%d,%d",
lines, startlines, as.integer(offsets)), collapse = "\n")
tagsize <- nchar(tag.lines, type = "bytes") + 1L
cat("\x0c\n", src, ",", tagsize, "\n", tag.lines, "\n", sep = "", ...)
}
So someone who reads C and R can write a converter :-)
