In Visual Studio, in the source code editor one can right-click a class,=20
method, variable name, etc. and select 'go to definition' from the context=
=20
menu. The source code editor will jump to the source code when available,=
=20
else it displays the 'object browser' (should be called namespace browser o=
r=20
something) selecting the rquired item.

Very practical.

&gt; What I wanted was an easy way to jump directly to a class. So I want
<br>&gt; &gt; some window where you type in the name of the class (possibly=
 with<br>&gt; &gt; some kind of completion) and then you jump to that class=
. Also if you<br>&gt; &gt; have some code like:<br>&gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; C=
lassA a;
<br>&gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; If you position your cursor on ClassA and hit so=
me shortcut key, you<br>&gt; &gt; will jump directly to the class definitio=
n of ClassA. This would go<br>&gt; &gt; for methods etc. too. Is this somet=
hing we want MD to do or can MD
<br>&gt; &gt; already do this?<br>&gt; &gt;<br>&gt; You mean something like=
 Taglist (:Tlist) for gvim?<br>&gt; (<a href=3D"http://www.geocities.com/ye=
