Introduction

Features and Benefits
File History
OpenGrok maintains code version history. I am currently unsure of whether it looks at the CVS versioning information or whether it compares files between indexes. There is also options for many diffs and comparing different, non-concurrent versions.Example
Extendable
If there are files which cannot be analysed by the included analysers, OpenGrok allows the user to develop their own analysers, I am unsure of whether or not there is a JavaScript analyser allready, maybe even an XPCOM/XUL analyser could be written, but I don't know the first thing about XPCOM/XUL so this maybe allready implemented in another language.
In File Linking
The indexer hyperlinks all symbols to the file and line number of their declaration. If the symbol is in multiple files it shows a list of all files which have it.
Integrates Well
The header and footer are completely customizable. OpenGrok could be integrated with the current MDC potentially. The header and footer are implemented through a variable which holds the copmlete html of the header and footer.
