It's just rolling your foot over in most instances...not so much for double-clutching anymore as it is for matching revs, as others have noted.

Get a copy of Grand Prix and watch the footwork during the Monaco race at the beginning...

Yep what the big guy said, hell the whole movie is great, "Lemans" another classic.

For those who would like very good technical reference check out:

I find this a great all around racing/driving/setup book.
