[SuSE Linux] Linux Books
Talking of Linux books, can anyone suggest a book that goes in depth into the Linux environment. What I am looking for is a book which does not give basic details of how to use Linux, but one which goes into details about system libraries (i.e. explaining a.out, ELF, glibc) and similiar topics?

Well, it dosn't go into depth about glibc, but it does explain shell scripts, libaraires, curses, tcl, sockets, X, etc. It does it in an easy to understand style. It comes with example source code for you to compile also. Look at " Beginning Linux Programming" from Wrox Press Cheapbytes.com has it in their books section - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

I don't know if this meets your needs exactly. You can probably get an explaination of those topics on the net at the Linux Documentation Project: <A HREF="http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/"><A HREF="http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/</A">http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/</A</A>> Anyway, as for books, "Beginning Linux Programming" by Wrox does explain some of the system libraries and how to use the UNIX/Linux enviornment for programming. It isn't for beginning programmers, but people who know how to program and want to learn on Linux. -- lunaslide * PGP key->pgpkeys.mit.edu port 11371 * * * * * * In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is * getting caught.
