 Like \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}, there may be both old and new ways to achieve the same effect.
 For example, the following programs compare the C, \CFA, and \CC I/O mechanisms, where the programs output the same result.

 While \CFA I/O \see{\VRef{s:StreamIOLibrary}} looks similar to \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}, there are important differences, such as automatic spacing between variables and an implicit newline at the end of the expression list, similar to \Index*{Python}~\cite{Python}.
