Subject: Add a link to the Reference Manual from the example page
When doing a Google search for "bit syntax", you could end up
on the programming examples page about bit syntax. The example
page has some reference material, but is far from complete.
Therefore, add a link to the page about bit syntax in the
Reference Manual.

Introduction
+ The complete specification for the bit syntax appears in the
+ Reference Manual.
In Erlang, a Bin is used for constructing binaries and matching
binary patterns. A Bin is written with the following syntax:
separated by hyphens.
Type
- - The type can be integer, float, or
- binary.
+ - The most commonly used types are integer, float, and binary.
+ See Bit Syntax Expressions in the Reference Manual for a complete description.
+
Signedness
- The signedness specification can be either signed
or unsigned. Notice that signedness only matters for
