ctags definitions for Coffeescript. Very basic for now. "> ctags -e -R source_folder" and then M-. to jump to the definition of any function or variable (if you're using emacs)
--langdef=coffee
--langmap=coffee:.coffee
--regex-coffee=/^[ \t]*([A-Za-z.]+)[ \t]+=.*->.*$/\1/f,function/
--regex-coffee=/^[ \t]*([A-Za-z.]+)[ \t]+=[^->\n]*$/\1/v,variable/
