SourceNavigator.

Thanks!

I command line interface would be a very cool feature.
If for the only reason of report generating, but also 
for other thing like update database info during the
night (cron job style).

I think most of the more useful feature could be implemented
as tcl scripts to output either in text or HTML. (There is
some HTML support but it is current broken in 4.5x).

I believe that currently run Source-Navigator requires
an X server even when ran as a command line app.  (?)

There is more info about running SN from the command line
in the SDK doc (Programmers Reference Guide) with some
examples.
