I think you may be still thinking a bit proprietary-like. ;) Aside from standards, there is no "one way" with Linux: -do you want to do GUI programming? Your popular choices are GTK/Gnome and QT/KDE: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/ http://developer.kde.org/ -do you want to do systems programming? Your popular choices are good ol' Posix libraries: http://www.gnu.org/manual/glibc-2.2.5/html_mono/libc.html also there are some nice C++ collections that arent yet popular, such as: http://www.gnu.org/software/commonc++/ http://www.boost.org/ Also it would be fruitful to search for any books released under the Open Documentation License. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ryan -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
