Hello,

I just picked up a book called Beginning Linux Programming from Wrox.  I have
just started reading this book, and there are some questions that I think they
assume I know, but don't.  I need to find a book or a webpage that explains
several basic things.  Like why does every file in C start with #! include?

For the most part this book looks to be very useful as it is very thick, and
uses a more conversational tone rather than technical, but it doesn't cover
some of the raw basics.  Any suggestions would be useful.

Also I am going to try emacs.  Do I need to learn elisp to do shell
programming, which the book covers, or can I still use (I think) C?

thanks,
Ivan
