[vmlinuz] will be giving a tutorial on on programming in C in
Linux, and covering many different elements of writing,
compiling and distribution programs. It should be a bit of fun,
and give new users of C and Linux a chance to get a decent
grounding in C.
He will be covering the following items in the first session:
What C is and its benifits/disadvantages
The process of writing a program
Writing our first program
Discussion on how that program works
Adding more to that program
When the tutorial has finished there will be a Q&A session in
which he will answer any questions that users may have.
You will need to bring the following to the tutorial:
A Linux distribution with:
The GNU C Compiler: gcc
A Text Editor
You will also need to be preferably in Linux when you are in
the channel for the tutorial. This is because he will be
actually asking you to type in examples and compile them
througout the tutorial. This is not essential, but it helps.
The tutorial will start May 9th at 8.00 PM GMT.

Jono Bacon at
Linux UK has started
#linuxprogramming on dalnet. Jono (and me) is hoping that
the channel will be a place for developers to meet and
bring them together. Another idea is to teach some kind of
classes in the channel.
