	/* Declare `procedure' to be a pointer to a function which gets
	   two integers and returns nothing.  */
	void (*procedure)(int, int);

	/* Use it.  */

Actually, you may say just "my_proc(x, y)", but some compilers out there 
didn't hear about ANSI C standard which allows this (DJGPP *does* know 
about this).
