Please, try to help out us poor folks who aren't a part of your world and
provide a proper changelog here.  What does this script do, why would one
want a "gtags.files" file, how does one run it, etc?  Additionally, the
script itself should have a comment describing what it does and how to run
it - somebody stumbling across it in 2030 may not just know that stuff.

Thanks,

jon
