You'll start by walking through installing, patching, and managing software development tools on your Linux system. Next, you'll discover the right tools to solve real-world problems at every stage of your project, from coding to revision control, debugging to performance optimization. Fusco's concise, practical examples are designed for clarity--and easy modification to your needs.
