That short list is the stuff I've settled on as the essentials for writing C in a *NIX environment. If your OS is something else you'd have other stuff instead of the Lion book and man pages: - for OS-9 v2 or v3 you'd have "OS-9 Insights" plus the "Operating System" and "Language" manuals (a pair of 50mm thick A5 ring binders that cover absolutely everything you'll ever need to know to write OS-9 programs and drivers in C or assembler). - for Windows, you'll probably end up with half a shelf of stuff which is likely to be incomplete, thanks to MS's fondness for undocumented features. Been there, done that, still got the pile of moldering books. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
