SourceWeb: A C/C++ source code indexer and navigator

This looks really interesting, source-navigator has not been actively developed for years, source-insighter is windows-only, eclipse etc is just too heavy for code navigator.

however the 0.1 release is done on 2013.5.6 and that is it, not much development was done since then. Also the 'apt-get' list for compiling simply failed (could not find those packages) on debian 8.

while I really like a light-weight source code navigator,this one needs lots of work it seems.

The master branch worked without issue for me on ubuntu 15.04 and 15.10. I had to install clang-3.6 and libclang3.6-dev, if that helps.

Someone just sent a patch this morning upgrading it to Clang 3.7, which is available in the Ubuntu 15.10 repository, but not earlier. There are also official x64 llvm.org binaries for 14.04 that work.

I don't actually use the program on a daily basis, but I do pull it out on special occasions. Most recently I used it while tracking down https://github.com/atom/electron/issues/3380. It's helpful because Electron/Chromium is big and I'm unfamiliar with the code.

Just built it on 15.10 and it will segfault when I do "sourceweb index" but will run fine "sourceweb ./index", seems like a path is mandatory.

All in all this is not as feature complete as source navigator, which is old but works for me better still.
