Sitting next to it are the requirements for a project that needs this shiny new toy. And, sitting above it is a nice, empty bookshelf. So tell me, if you were spending the boss's money what books would you put on this shelf? What about utilities to put on the hard drive? I currently use vi, Microsoft C 5.0, Procomm, and xtree. I'm pretty good with C and 8086 assembly (the project will be written in C) and know enough about dos to boot up my infocom games. I'm not interested in stuff aimed at beginners or blue suits, I wanna know how to make my hardware/ software jump through hoops. Any advice would be appreciated.
