How to navigate around the source tree?

[Sylvain Henry]

Hi,

How do you generate your tags file? It seems to be a shortcoming of the 
generator to not take into account the location of the definition file.

We are promoting the module prefixes (`Hs`, `Stg`, `Tc`, etc.) into 
proper module layers (e.g. `HsUtils` becomes `GHC.Hs.Utils`) so it would 
be redundant to add the prefixes back. :/

Cheers,
Sylvain
