@c @* FORWARD REFERENCING.  Here is a nonsense program illustrating forward
referencing for identifiers.  Although there are various instances of
forward references, there was need for just one explicit~`\.{@@[}' command
(in module~3).  Identifiers that are used in the same section as they are
defined are subscripted with a bullet.  Note how the module-number
subscripts are set in different type for different kinds of identifiers.

Here we see that one can refer to the macros~|D| and~|W| as well as the
user-defined type~|PTR| in advance of their definition, yet they will
be subscripted properly.
@a
int main()
{
@<Typedefs@>@;
@<Special stuff@>@;

x = fcn(D(outer_test));
py = g(W(WEB_test));
}

@ Examples of definitions of an outer macro, a \WEB\ macro, and a function.
@d D(name) #name
@m W(arg) *arg++
@a
int fcn(char *name)
{}

@ In the following, we had to say ``\.{PTR\ @@[g\dots}'' in order to make
forward referencing to~|g| work.  Although one can say things like
``\.{@@[int\ g\dots}'', it wouldn't work here to say ``\.{@@[PTR\ g\dots}''
because |PTR|~isn't known yet as a special type, even in phase~1.
@<Special...@>=
PTR @[g(int i)
{}

@ The compiler will see this |typedef| before any statements that use the
type |PTR|.
@<Type...@>=

typedef char *PTR;
