What problems do you have?
declare the function g at the top of file a too, like this or something:
void g(int x, char y); <-- note that ;...
(actual declaration ofcourse depends on what parameters your function g
takes, and what it returns)
then use wherever you want in file a, and the linker will take care of the
rest.
The goodlooking way is to put thoose declarations in a file called b.h and
#include "b.h" in a.c
(function definitions in b.c still ofcourse)
I have heard of people using #include to include .c-files too, that is not
really good.
Then you don't get the full benefit of using multiple files, since the
whole will have to be compiled everytime, and not just the files that are
updated.
hope that helps, if not, ask again with more detail :)
