No, they explain what happens:

main; is equivalent to int main;

So what, it's a prototype declaration?
Also, wtf is main=5; doing? Declaring main as an int, assiging 5 and then making libc attempt to call a variable?

Variable declaration (without initializing it)... hmm, what are global variables initialized to? They can't very well take on a random value, because they aren't allocated on the stack, right? I know static globals are zeroed.

Correct. Calling a variable is equivalent to jumping to its position, then executing the bytes that represent it (and subsequent data).

Did you just invoke emacs to edit a single file? Emacs is a DAEMON!
