ok. this was the last push i needed ;) a new tutorial, titled "Unix and C/C++ runtime memory management for programmers" tutorial was just released on the LUPG site (http://www.actcom.co.il/~choo/lupg/). the tutorial actually tries to explain what happens when you're using malloc(), what is virtual memory, etc. took me over a year to eventually complete it. comments and fixes are welcome, as usual. the tutorial's direct url is http://www.actcom.co.il/~choo/lupg/tutorials/unix-memory/unix-memory.html hope this helps, -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
