Hi,

And welcome to LQ!

Using google ... searched for "emacs search tag"

Link #4 from the top.
http://web.mit.edu/answers/emacs/emacs_tags.html

30 seconds. How long did it take you to sign up
and type your question? :D

Is that what you need?

Cheers,
Tink

Hi,
Thanks for the welcome.I have googled a little and gone through the GNU documentation of emacs before posting here. i think you did not understand my question. I know how to traverse through multiple definition one by one , but my requirement is to get the list of all possible definitions in the project. This i am able to accomplish in vim (ctrl + ]) . I want to know if any similar thing exists in emacs
