Xfree86 4.2.0 Out

According to david_eliasson, Xfree86 v4.2.0 is out, but it'll probably be awhile before all the mirror sites have sycned up with the release, so you may want to just enjoy reading that changelog for a couple days before you bother getting the whole archive.

      Xfree86 4.2.0 Out was accepted, while Xfree86 4.2.0 out and Xfree86 4.2.0 out. were not. Looks like they just dont like lowercase or periods.

    I wouldn't buy the O'Reilly C books. I'm a C/C++ programmer and their C/C++ books are not aimed at language newbies, IIRC.

    Actually, the C For Dummies and C++ For Dummies books are pretty good for getting the basics. Then for C get K&R and for C++ get Stroustrup.

    That all will set you back about $150, but not all at once.
