vifn(1)			    General Commands Manual		       vifn(1)

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 edit-
       ing  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.
