For anyone who's new to programming and wants to learn C, I highly (highly!) recommend this book: http://www.amazon.com/Primer-Plus-5th-Stephen-Prata/dp/0672326965 It's a series of lessons that starts with very basic programming concepts and builds from there. For learning about screen control, I recommend this book: http://www.amazon.com/Programmers-Guide-NCurses-Dan-Gookin/dp/0470107596/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1292562176&sr=1-1 It's not as "great" as the Prata book above but it's the best ncurses tutorial that I'm aware of. I wish I could recommend a good book about GTK, but unfortunately I haven't found any that are really exceptional. Perhaps someone else can recommend something in that regard. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
