* Description
This layer provides bindings for using [[http://cscope.sourceforge.net][Cscope]] and [[https://github.com/portante/pycscope][PyCscope]] in Spacemacs.
=Cscope= provides indexing and searching capabilities for C and C++ code.
=PyCscope= extends these capabilities for Python code as well. See
[[https://github.com/OpenGrok/OpenGrok/wiki/Comparison-with-Similar-Tools][here]] for a comparison between =Cscope= and other similar tools (such as gtags).
* Install
** Layer
To use this contribution add it to your =~/.spacemacs=

[[http://cscope.sourceforge.net/#downloads][website]] and build it from source.
From package manager (for example, Ubuntu):

command =cscope/run-pycscope= for Python projects, bound to ~SPC m g i~.
