Bernd,

You don't specify what exactly it is that "doesn't work reliable". AFAIK, the 
ctags plugin hasn't had too much attention lately, so it's great if someone 
takes a look at it. 

In this case I can only guess that the use of "-L <filename>" is there because 
it is faster than '-R' and that it should only give ctags relevant files to 
work with. This should work well for projects where the project manager 
really does have a handle on what files are part of the project. 
Unfortunately, this does not take into account that for several project 
types, this is simply not the case (yet).

So, yes, maybe -R would be better than -L, for the time being.
