I have been working on navigational software for viewing indexed source code. It was and is very tedious because of limited work being done on it. I tried lxr and opengrok because they provide sources as webpages in which one can click symbols and see where they are defined and used all over in the software.

LXR is only useful for linux kernel or kernel source codes. One might change the scripts extensively to put it to use for other source codes.

Unlike LXR opengrok is fast and simple and one can use it for all kinds of source codes! It uses java so its faster compared to LXR perl scripts. Both depend on the exuberant CTAGS. And other third party softwares are necessary for its workings.

I am now going to index linux kernel for my selinux research and start interfacing it for trusted computing.
