Chris:

Fancy you mention C for RPG programmers.  There is exactly a book called by
this name written by Jennifer Hamilton.  It is only RPG/400 specific not ILE
RPG and uses the previous C/400 compiler for C.  But it is very good
perspective of C for an RPG programmer.  It is available from Duke press.

                       "This book is written in a style that makes you think
the author is speaking directly to you an ideal complement to the manuals
provided with the C/400
                       compiler. One that I wish I had earlier on."

                       Expand your RPG knowledge to include the currently
demanded C programming skills. Because this book is written from the
perspective of an RPG
                       programmer, you can easily adapt to C without returning
to the basics. C for RPG Programmers includes side-by-side coding examples
written in both C
                       and RPG to aid comprehension and understanding, clear
identification of unique C constructs, and a comparison of RPG opcodes to
equivalent C
                       concepts. Also, both the novice and experienced C
programmer will benefit from the many tips and examples covering the use of
C/400.
