    The most I know about C, is there has to be a "main()" function, 
which can call other created functions.  That, and you have to "include" 
header libraries to support the commands you've used (dot-h files).  The 
only advice I can give you is work your way up to the heavier stuff like 
kernal internals.  Grab the source for smaller C programs, like the cp, 
mv, and cat commands first.  Smaller programs will be far less 
overwhelming (as they would be for me.  Me, I can't even get linux 
running, or rather, the espeak screen reader for the viz-impared.  
Stoopid audio chip.  Anyway, I wish I could help you out more.  The 
farthest I got into C was hacking screen text in the WWIV BBS code about 
a decade ago.  When they ported to the $600 compiler, I quit.
