- I am in roughly the same boat, X windows, Unix, C, etc.
- The book I am using is
-
- Mactintosh C Programming Primer Vols. 1 & 2.
- Dave Mark & Cartwright Reed
- Addison Wesley 1992
- ISBN 0-201-60838-3 (vol 1)
- ISBN 0-201-57016-5 (vol 2)
-
- These are excellent books and make programming the mac
- very understandable. I also think C and so do the books.
- Also you may want to get copies of Inside Macintosh (both
- the old and new versions) beware these are multi-volume
- sets and may cost a bit if that is an issue.
-
- good luck..
