GLOBAL accept original ctags -x format.
An example for the converting is described in the gtags.conf in GLOBAL
package. If you make three parsers for three tag files (GTAGS, GRTAGS, GSYMS)
according to gtags-parser(1) then you can use all functions of global(1).

Please see the 'Plug-in parser' section of GLOBAL tutorial for the details.
However, because the document is insufficient, you might have to read the
source code of GLOBAL.
