This is just a one-time include. I guess Ed used the .h suffix so his 
$EDITOR chooses the right syntax highlighting. There is some magic going 
on to call these functions (you probably noticed he didn't add any 
obvious callers): The callers are generated by a script. The differnt 
parts are then all included in teken.c.
