No, they are in the correct order in the include files.  The
manual is incorrect.

Are you aure Chuck's example is looking into a filehandle to find the
console.device ?  Rather than getting the console process
by a FindTask(0) and using the process pointer to the
ConsoleTask, then sending a packet to the console task, and
getting a return value ?
