Quote from Martin Dougiamas, 2003:
"For those who've never used tags before, it's a very fast way of jumping around code. You place the cursor over a function call and hit Ctrl-] to jump directly to that function. Ctrl-T brings you back again. You can jump several steps away and return one step at a time. The tags file is just an index to keep things fast."
I gather from this that the tag file is part of Moodle development rather than the running. I have disabled my tag file and Moodle works just fine, or is it working slower and I haven't noticed yet?
The reason I ask is that this file is rather large in version 1.5.3 (2.8 Mbytes) and I am always mindful of space on my server.
Many thanks
