Re: bug: gtags not respecting .ctags files

[Gis Ochre]

Hello, Shigio!

Sorry, my bad. I didn't describe my particular issue in detail.

My particular issue was that gtags didn't respect `--langdef=kotlin` config from
~/.ctags.d/custom.ctags file.

On second thought, it doesn't require changing exuberant-ctags.c.
Adding line
```
    :langmap=kotlin\:.kt:\

```

under `universal-ctags|setting to use Universal Ctags plug-in parser:\` in gtags.conf

fixes the issue for me and ctags start using that langdef when called by gtags.

But maybe you should consider adding smth like
```
+:options=~/.ctags.d/mycustom.ctags,~/.ctags.d/anothercustom.ctags:\

```

to gtags.conf to support arbitrary ctags options, not just --langmap and -exlude.

Hello,
File exclusion should be specified in gtags.conf. GLOBAL uses uctags only
as an parser. If you want to skip 'foo' file, please write like follows:

        [gtags.conf]
        :skip=foo:\

If 'foo' is a directory, it should be 'foo/'.
Please see gtags(1) for the detail.

Regards,
Shigio
