Is there a vim-style cscope interface for emacs? I hate that xcscope brings up its own persistent buffers (replacing other buffers that I had deliberately placed on the screen). Vim, conveniently, just pops up the cscope interface when I need to enter some input, and then hides it away. Also I don't think xcscope works with evil's tag stack whereas in vim, I believe, you can just return to where you were with ^T, whether using ctags or cscope.

Yes, I have found it helpful. One nice feature is that it uses a character-terminal interface, not a platform-specific GUI.
