Anyone know how to get it? I need to access it during editor mode in order to make an editor window that shows them.

[EditorGUI.TagField](http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/EditorGUI.TagField.html) gives you a selector for choosing a tag.
What you really want though, is `UnityEditorInternal.InternalEditorUtility.tags`, which is a string array of all tags in the system. This is a public but undocumented internal feature, so it may break in future releases of Unity.

string to\_search\_tag=“Player”;
