<h2>Languages in common use (other languages in Programmer's Supplement, volume 2)</h2>

<h3>The C Programming Language - Reference Manual</h3>

Official statement of the syntax of C.
Should be supplemented by ``The C Programming Language,''
B.W. Kernighan and D.M. Ritchie, Prentice-Hall, 1978, that
contains a tutorial introduction and many examples.

<h3>A Portable Fortran 77 Compiler</h3>

A revised version of the document which originally appeared in
Volume 2b of the Bell Labs documentation;
this version reflects the ongoing work at Berkeley.

<h3>Introduction to the f77 I/O Library</h3>

A description of the revised input/output library for Fortran 77, 
reflecting work carried out at Berkeley.

<h3>Berkeley Pascal User's Manual</h3>

An implementation of this language popular for learning to program.

<h3>Berkeley Vax/UNIX Assembler Reference Manual</h3>

The usage and syntax of the assembler;  useful mostly by compiler writers.

<h2>General Reference</h2>

<h3>Berkeley Software Architecture Manual (4.3 Edition)</h3>

A concise and terse description of the system call interface
provided in Berkeley Unix, as revised for 4.3BSD.
This will never be a best seller.

<h3>An Introductory 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication Tutorial</h3>

How to write programs that use the Interprocess Communication Facilities
of 4.3BSD.

<h3>An Advanced 4.3BSD Interprocess Communication Tutorial</h3>

The reference document (with some examples) for the Interprocess Communication 
Facilities of 4.3BSD.

<h2>Programming Tools</h2>

<h3>Lint, A C Program Checker</h3>

Checks C programs for syntax errors, type violations, portability problems,
and a variety of probable errors.

<h3>A Tutorial Introduction to ADB</h3>

How to debug programs using the <b>adb</b> debugger.
For hints on the use of ADB for debugging the
Unix kernel, see ``Using ADB to Debug the Kernel'', SMM:3

<h3>Debugging with dbx</h3>

How to debug programs without having to know much about machine language.

<h3>Make - A Program for Maintaining Computer Programs</h3>

Indispensable tool for making sure large programs are properly
compiled with minimal effort. 

<h3>An Introduction to the Revision Control System</h3>

without stepping on each other's toes.
An alternative to <b>sccs</b> for controlling software changes.

<h3>An Introduction to the Source Code Control System</h3>

<h3>YACC: Yet Another Compiler-Compiler</h3>

Converts a BNF specification of a language and semantic actions
written in C into a compiler for that language.

<h3>LEX - A Lexical Analyzer Generator</h3>

Creates a recognizer for a set of regular expressions:
each regular expression can be followed by arbitrary C code
to be executed upon finding the regular expression.

<h3>The M4 Macro Processor</h3>

M4 is a macro processor useful in its own right and as a
front-end for C, Ratfor, and Cobol.

<h2>Programming Libraries</h2>

<h3>Screen Updating and Cursor Movement Optimization</h3>

Describes the <b>curses</b> package, an aid for writing screen-oriented,
