  Sorry to post this here, but I am have not been able to get mail to
return to Mark Schuldy. Site njin complains that it doesn't know gollum
and reversing the original path complains too.

   "The C Programmers Handbook", M.I. Bolsky, Systems Training Center,
AT&T Bell Laboratories. Prentice-Hall, 1985. ISBN 0-13-110073-4.

   This is a yellow wire-bound book. It is a good reminder reference, but
not really a 'teach-me' C book. It covers some of the normal library
functions, and has a section on 'how to be portable'. It is definitely
pre-ANSI. I use it generally when I an writing code and need to get the
order of parameters to fread right.  It is heavily indexed to make finding
things quick, and really brief so it doesn't take 5 minutes to read what
you are looking up.

   There is a companion "UNIX Handbook". It is not as useful to me, as I am
a BSD UNIX user, and the book is (AT&T) SystemV.
