 document.  In program source code, tags reference syntactic elements
 of the program: functions, subroutines, data types, macros, etc.  In a
 document, tags reference chapters, sections, appendices, etc.  Each
-tag specifies the file name on which the corresponding subunit is
+tag specifies the name of the file where the corresponding subunit is
 defined, and the position of the subunit's definition in that file.
 
   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

address@hidden source files.
