Why vi tags are useful than LXR (Linux Cross Reference)?

Guys as promised this post contains link for vi tags tutorial.
As presented in class I guess you all would agree how useful it would be to use vi tags (you could use many other editors, but I am always happy with vi) than LXR :)

To mention some of the reasons why tags are useful:
- The LXR for the version you are using may not be available.
- The LXR and the code that you are using could be out of sync.
- Un-necessary switching between the editor and browser.

So enjoy Ctrl+] and Ctrl+T
