Cscope is a programming tool developed in the 1980s which uses a text-based user interface that allows computer programmers or software developers to search source code of the programming language C. It is often used on very large projects to aid code comprehension to find source code, functions, declarations, definitions, and regular expressions. As of 2000, cscope is free and released under a BSD license. The original developer of cscope is Joe Steffen.
