idea to make htags more useful without web server

Hi,

I really like the web page generated by

    htags --suggest --call-tree=call_graph --callee-tree=callee_graph

The only thing missing from it is global search.  I would rather not
activate cgi in my project dirs and if fact there are a couple more
convenient possiblities:

1. In addition to The alphabetized sections under Definitions, add an
All Definitions item.  It could look like:

All Definitions -- [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] [H] [I] [K] [L] [M] [N]
[O] [P] [Q] [R] [S] [T] [U] [V] [W] [X] [Y] [Z] [_] [a] [b] [c] [d]
[e] [f] [g] [h] [i] [j] [k] [l] [m] [n] [o] [p] [q] [r] [s] [t] [u]
[v] [w] [x] [y] [z]

or so.  This way the user can just browser search in that page when
they want to navigate by search.  This would be somewhat like the way
the GNU docs offer everything on one page (some of them anyway -- I
wish they all did).

2. Generate the JavaScript such that search can be fully embedded in
the page.  This would be some work and I think the result of 1. would
be better anyway, I mention it only for completeness.

In general GNU global is some of the cleanest software I've seen, very
beautiful work thanks.
