KScope is a KDE front-end to Cscope. It provides a source-editing
environment for large C projects, such as the Linux kernel. KScope is
by no means intended to be a replacement to any of the leading
Linux/KDE IDEs, such as KDevelop. However, these IDEs, often targeted
at Object-Oriented, user-space programming, are usually unsuitable for
maintaining large projects, using functional programming. For
instance, using a "Classes" window to display the thousands of
functions in the Linux kernel code, would be impractical, and thus
will prevent any useful navigation throughout the code. KScope, on the
other hand, provides a rather useful mechanism for code-navigation, by
allowing the user to run queries on the code.
