TeX/LaTeX: "Open Declaration" feature

Hi,

Modern development environments are good at jumping to declarations of any identifier used in source code. Not so, apparently, if the programming language in question is TeX. Both TeXlipse and Kile offer identifier completion, so they must see those declarations; in TeXlipse the "Open Declaration" context menu item exists and isn't even grayed out, but brings just "No declaration found" response. Meanwhile, all the necessary declarations exist in plain text, like C/C++ include files.

Is there a TeX/LaTeX development environment capable of doing this simple thing? If there is, let it be something other than Emacs ...

Maybe vim-auctex from the AUR could help you. I never tried myself and want to learn auctex myself later. (warning: auctex is made for evil emacs )

I just know auctex can do a lot of things.
