GNU Global ignores source files without extensions

Hi,

In /usr/include/c++/4.8/ is standard header files for C++ like iostream, string, map, set... The problem is, none of the headers has an extension, and Global just ignores them. It seems like currently GNU Global has the only options to specify a file that contains a list of files to be parsed. But then, we have to manually specify which file to include, which is tedious. For example, I want to generate GTAGS database for /usr/include, and it contains /usr/include/c++/4.8/; I have no choice but to list all files under /usr/include and save all the file paths into a file then feed it to Global via -f option.

Ideally, we should be able to force Global to parse everything under specified directories.

Thanks.
