Here it is running: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;elixir.free-electrons.com&#x2F;linux&#x2F;v4.12-rc2&#x2F;source" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;elixir.free-electrons.com&#x2F;linux&#x2F;v4.12-rc2&#x2F;source</a><p>It&#x27;s nice, but I prefer <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;lingrok.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;lingrok.org&#x2F;</a>. It&#x27;s definitely easier to browse previous versions using Elixir, though.

I noticed the other day that free-electrons had swapped their interface to the new one. It&#x27;s nice they decided to make it free software (using git on my local machine always has taken quite a long while -- so long that I wrote my own .git parser in shell so that it could efficiently generate my terminal prompt).

How does it compare to the other existing solutions? (LXR? LXRng? OpenGrok? I&#x27;m not an expert here)<p>Does it work for other code (not Linux kernel) too? What are the requirements? Would it e.g. work for SQLite? Lua?

We&#x27;ve taken &quot;Elixir&quot; out of the title above because otherwise the thread will be about nothing but that.<p>How about we treat this as an exercise in community self-discipline and see if we can resist the name-bait? I know it&#x27;s hard.

Name collisions really should be getting less common, not more, given how easy it is to search things today.
