Ouch! I created a MarkDown instructions page before I got your reply.
Here it is:

As the instructions page explains, there are three commands to run
(gtags, htags, htagsfix). On my computer it takes about 3 minutes

this in at least 20% of the time: 35 seconds top.

I see that this is the newest 'global' version. Good. You can ignore
the "appendix" on the instructions page.

Anybody who's interested can download the HTML archive here:

Replace "PASSWORD" with "bird" (sorry for this silly trick. I don't
want people to stress the server).
