That book takes you through not only using the compiler but also using make (indispensible), autoconf, intro to the editors, basic system programming (files, sockets, even intro to device drivers). In short this book combined with a book on C will take you a long way. Like I said its on the cheap shelf (if you want to reserve it until you look at it then phone them). _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
