The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Programming With GNU Software':

Reviewer amazon.com wrote:
One of the great benefits of Unix is the vast array of free and inexpensive software tools that are available for the platform. Programming with GNU Software provides an overview of how C and C++ programmers can use some of these tools: the source-code editor Emacs, the gcc compiler, gdb debugger, gprof profiler, and the RCS version-control system. The book offers a quick-paced tutorial that, unlike some introductions to Unix tools, is particularly focused on the needs of C programmers.
Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
To a great many UNIX users, GNU software refers to the GNU versions of awk, sed, and other utilities. To programmers, however, the important bits are the gcc C compiler and other tools. This book provides enough UNIX information to get started, a rundown on the emacs editor and environment, compilation and linking with gcc, libraries, debugging, make, the Revision Control System, and program profiles and timing. And, of course, you get the software thrown in as well. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1997
