    When you want to make a tags table from a great number of files,
    you may have problems listing them on the command line, because
    some systems have a limit on its length. The simplest way to
    circumvent this limit is to tell `etags' to read the file names
    from its standard input, by typing a dash in place of the file
    names, like this:

        find . -name "*.[chCH]" -print | etags -
