Hi all!This book isn't neceserily a "Linux Programing" book because other than commands to mount the diskette or CD-ROM or DOS partition it really doesn't have anything with Linux but with curses and UNIXoids in general. It creates an editor using curses library under consoleCreating yet another editor under Linux is not what Linux society now needs. It would be better that the writer has concentrated on advanced concepts of GNU make, automake, autoconf, gdb, i18n libraries calls, and the linux system programming overall, or at least to describe curses functions as a reference so that the book can be usefull even after one has read it.The book is perfect for a UNIX/C beggining programer, but considering usability, it has come out 5-7 years to late for any Linux user.And last, I would reccomend "Programming with GNU Software" from O'Reilly instead.
