Hi Yakov,

 Thanks for the prompt help. I tried the lookupfile plugin,
looks great at first glance, can you throw light on the below
problems I encountered

 - do I always have to generate tagfile for every directory i visited?
   if so, I feel its a big burden that prevent me using the plugin
   frequently and globally. is there any way to eliminate this burden?
I'm sure there is; every time a failure to find a match would require Hari's plugin to run ctags over all directories you've visited (I'm not sure how he'd get that particular list, though). Of course, that means a significant delay every time you try to complete on a string that doesn't have a match. I'd think that'd be annoying. OTOH, if you want a map that would rebuild the ctags database, that should be straightforward. Again, the kicker is how to know what directories you've visited.
Oh, about the map:  check on help for :map and system().

Regards,
Chip Campbell
