Kirk, I typically go to the web and "Google" for "C Language". Lots of really good sites with examples.
Couple that I have been using: http://www.imada.sdu.dk/~svalle/courses/dm14-2005/mirror/c/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language) I have found that I no longer need to have any C specific books. Granted this assumes you have a PC connected to the web. Plus many of the IDE (Integrated Development Suites) packages offer help as you type. the will at least display a prototype definition as you enter the keyword or function name.

Can I just massage my C file into comp form and have comp do all the real work? Then just use "loadusr" instead of the "loadrt" I am used to with comp files? What do I do with "main"? Anyone have a favorite modern C book? (FYI - I saw a reference to Makers on PBS (Quest?) recently. They showed a CNC Cheese-Wiz prototyper, plasma cutter and BP type machine.
