Do you think you can spend a few dollars and buy the book  SAMS " Teach
yourself C in 21 Days",
ISBN 0-672-31069-4 , apprx. US=A7 30,  a full-featured Borland-C
compiler/linker,Debugger/ IDE
is coming with the book. The book is written in plain, easy to
understand English and covers, beside the basics of C, the topic of
pointers.
