Hello,

After looking at the FreeBSD website and looking at docs all over the place, 
I havent found what I'm looking for, so I decided to mail this list.

I am a software developer for Windows, and moving to FreeBSD has been very 
nice, especially since the tools to make software are completly free! My 
question is: Where can I find information on programming for FreeBSD? Things 
like how it differs from Windows, what it can and can't do, how to develop 
for X/KDE. I am good with C and C++, and know my way around gcc/make, but I 
don't know about system and 'net API calls that are specific to FreeBSD, and 
*NIX in general.

If you can point me to a good website, that would help
If you can point me to a (recent) book, that would be even better.

Much thanks!
