Both CIDER and SLIME look like a good candidate among third-party packages. I also intend to use it in Robe (which can't be added to GNU ELPA because of inf-ruby dependency; it's also begging for a rewrite...)
. The doc string of xref-find-function mentions several variants of invoking the function, but there doesn't seem to be any way of controlling that when invoking the function interactively, is there? I think it would be good to be able to lookup only the definitions or only the references of a symbol.
`M-.' only looks up definitions. Or at least, that's the .
Indeed, the current UI does not offer access to all features of the API.
There is M-x xref-find-references. Neither of the two current backends implements it, though (but I know SLIME has such a feature, and CEDET probably has something comparable). We could bind it to `C-M-?.
