its not online, but the book "C Programming, A Modern Approach" by K.N.
King is quite readable. This is where I'd send someone who wants to learn
C. And if you're stuck on a system with bad man pages (this is not an
issue on NetBSD), its good as a reference for stdlib stuff. Of course my
approach when stuck on one of these bad systems is to open a telent window
to my netbsd machine and use the man pages there...
