Learning GNU Emacs
Debra Cameron/Bill Rosenblatt, O'Reilly, 
411 pp., $27.95 Order no. AY432800
--------------------------------------------------------
Both of the above titles look like good, in-depth guides for those who 
want to push Emacs to its fabled maxes. Both devote quite a bit of 
attention, for example, to custom-ization and software development 
issues (Lisp but also other language modes). The Schoonover book, part 
of the Hewlett Packard Press series, is much heftierpartially due to 
tables and formatting that make it awash in white space, partially 
because it covers several topics Cameron's does not, and partially 
because the Cameron book follows the O'Reilly nutshell tradition of 
concise prose. Both are safe bets.

semantics of the various system calls. It covers AT&T's System V 
and System III, Bell Laboratory's Version 7, Berkeley 4.2 BSD, and 
Microsoft's XENIX 3. Accompanying the text are over 3,000 lines

UNIX System V Commands: Programmer's Rapid Reference
Baird Peterson, Van Nostrand Reinhold, 137 pp., $29.95

implies. It provides essentially the same information as other 
UNIX manuals, but only for 43 commands. (Programming-related 
commands pertinent to SCCS, debugging, object files and library

This text uses the generators lex and yacc as case studies 
for developing a compiler. It doesn't delve into theoretical 
details; however it gives resources for readings. You'll need 
knowledge of an editor, C, and file system manipulations for 
your host machine. Upon completion of this book, you will be 
empowered with the basics of compiler design! Order no.

ABOUT
COMPUTER LITERACY BOOKSHOPS

When we opened our first store in the Spring of 1983, there was one 
UNIX book available from a major publisher. At last count, we had 
hundreds of UNIX titles in stock, for a total of 2,100 UNIX books! We
recently allocated an additional 8-foot bookcase in our largest store to 
UNIX.

During the last nine years, our own software systems have also migrated
from CP/M to MS-DOS to SCO UNIX. We have found SCO UNIX to be a 
great solution to our multi-user needs as well as a good way to keep in 
touch with the bulk of our customers, and a lot of fun for the hackers 
among us. I can personally vouch for many of the books listed here since 
I have been doing some of the system administration for our four SCO 
systems. 

Besides UNIX, C, and X Window books, we carry the world's largest 
selection of books on all other computer and electronics topics. 
We have it all, from Ada and Autocad to Wordperfect and VLSI design  
more than 600 categories! Ask us anything! We are the favorite of 
computer professionals worldwide.
