I do not have this book available, but in a fair number of years of C and
C++ programming, I have never heard of the "export" keyword, except for DLL
creation in Microsoft compilers.  The closest I can think of is the
"extern" keyword, but it is used to import things from other compilation
units, and it is _not_ needed to get access to functions.

Could you give one or more quotes from your book, preferably with small
code examples if possible?
