This morning, I started getting that message when I attempt to open a file in Vim. Vim is my editor of choice for config files, git commit messages and the like, but is not my day to day code editor. I clearly did something to invite this message, but I have no idea what. I did recently uninstall an older version of XCode from /Developer-3.2.6, but that's the only thing that comes to mind that seems even tangentially related.
I'm running OSX Lion. Is Excuberant ctags part of the base install? I know I didn't install it intentionally, but if it's not native, then maybe it came along with something else? Any ideas about how to either get the plugin back or remove references to it so I don't get the warning message?
Thanks.

To install Exuberant Ctags: Go to the following website and download the latest package labeled Source and binary for Windows: http://ctags.sourceforge.net. If the latest binary package is not available for download, go to the Download section and download the binary package for the previous version of Ctags.
What: Exuberant Ctags. Where: http://ctags.sf.net/ Description: Multi-language reimplementation of the Unix ctags program. Generates an index of source code object definitions which is used by many editors and tools to look up definitions.
Vim's built-in code navigation functionality using ctags is fantastically useful. Properly configured, it can allow you to jump from file to file in a project with one or two keypresses. Position the cursor over an object or function name, press C-] and Vim takes you directly to its definition; C-o takes you back.
Use vim with ctags Introduction Ctags generates an index (or tag) file of language objects found in source files that allows these items to be quickly and easily located by a text editor or other utility. A tag signifies a language object for which an index entry is available. Vim is the official editor of ctags (No vim plugin required).
The taglist plugin will work on all the platforms where the exuberant ctags utility and Vim are supported (this includes MS-Windows and Unix based systems). The taglist plugin relies on the exuberant ctags utility to dynamically generate the tag listing.
Vim is the official editor of ctags (No vim plugin required). Plain and simple: ctags lets us jump around our source code using tags and a stack.
You can now use the ":TlistToggle" command (previously ":Tlist") to open/close the taglist window. You can use the ":help taglist" command to get more information about using the taglist plugin. Page last modified on 28th November 2006
