codewalker n. a program component that traverses other programs for a
   living. compilers have codewalkers in their front ends; so do
   cross-reference generators and some database front ends. other utility
   programs that try to do too much with source code may turn into
   codewalkers. as in "this new `vgrind' feature would require a codewalker
   to implement."
