Bill,
     Truly, some of this stuff is not simple and it can set your head to
spinning.  I have found "ADVANCED C: Food for the Educated Palate" by Narain
Gehani very helpful.  He combines a tutorial style with a concern for rigor
that makes the fine points most accessable.  He devotes several pages to
deciphering complex declarations.  One of his examples is:
 int *(*(*x)[6])(); which translates as: x is a pointer to an array[6] of
pointers to functions returning a pointer to an integer.  Geez!
