Im gonna write a new IRC client > My favorite book on C is "The C Programming Language", by Kernigan and Ritchie, Second Edition. For a fact, one of the most concise and complete references for the C language. If you also require a text on the standard library, I would suggest "The C Standard Library", by P.J. Plauder. Not as many examples as I would have liked, however it presents the actual relevant parts of the ANSI standard at the beginning of each chapter. I paid US$40, retail, for each book. -d To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
