I found K&R to be sufficient. It is, however, somewhat lacking in the
"how to use the tools that come with the compiler" department.
The best tutorial is, of course, to have a simple problem, sit down with
the book, and solve it. Or to find someone elses code that does almost
what you want, and hack on that. The latter is how I learnt perl, by
fixing Matt's scripts.
