When we work on a huge project, which would has hundreds of the same tags, and it is hard to choose the correct tag.

And I wrote the jumper that named "phpctags", but which doesn't generate tags file. It replace the shortcut key "<C-\]>" with executing an external php script, which returns the jump position for the definition or declaration of the keyword that you hit.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

```
$ bin/PHPJumpToDefinition --help

  -f, --file=FILE              file that needs to be parsed
  -l, --line=LINE              line number where the keyword appear
  -c, --column=COLUMN          column where the keyword appear
  -k, --keyword=KEYWORD        keyword that needs to be analysed
  -r, --root=ROOT              project root for finding functions and others
  -a, --autoload=AUTOLOAD      user project autoload files, default 'vendor/autoload.php'
  -h, --help                   print the help info and exit
  -v, --version                print the version and exit

returns '$jump_file $jump_line $jump_position' when success,
and returns a string start with 'Error' then following detail
information when failed.

```
