 document.  In program source code, tags reference syntactic elements

+tag specifies the name of the file where the corresponding subunit is

   A @dfn{tags table} records the tags extracted by scanning the source
 code of a certain program or a certain document.  Tags extracted from
-generated files reference subunits in the original files, rather than
-the generated files that were scanned during tag extraction.  Examples

-@file{.fpp} source files.

-  To produce tags tables, you use the @samp{etags} command, submitting

 search or replace through multiple source files: these commands use
