+This chapter should describe the details necessary to understand how
+the various @code{gfc_*} data are used and interact.  In general it is
+advisable to read the code in @file{dump-parse-tree.c} as its routines
+should exhaust all possible valid combinations of content for these

+@tindex @code{struct gfc_code}
+
+The executable statements in a program unit are represented by a
+nested chain of @code{gfc_code} structures.  The type of statement is
+identified by the @code{op} member of the structure, the different
+possible values are enumerated in @code{gfc_exec_op}.  A special
+member of this @code{enum} is @code{EXEC_NOP} which is used to
+reperesent the various @code{END} statements if they carry a label.
+Depending on the type of statement some of the other fields will be
+filled in.  Fields that are generally applicable are the @code{next}
+and @code{here} fields.  The former points to the next statement in
+the current block or is @code{NULL} if the current statement is the
+last in a block, @code{here} points to the statement label of the
+current statement.
+
+If the current statement is one of @code{IF}, @code{DO}, @code{SELECT}
+it starts a block, i.e. a nested level in the program.  In order to
+represent this, the @code{block} member is set to point to a
+@code{gfc_code} structure whose @code{block} member points to the
+block in question.  The @code{SELECT} and @code{IF} statements may
+contain various blocks (the chain of @code{ELSE IF} and @code{ELSE}
+blocks or the various @code{CASE}s, respectively).
