在Windows下通过SSH连接到远程的Linux主机上进行开发时，如果需要查看对应的API文档，可以使用 man 命令。但是，
既然是在基于GUI的Windows下，使用集成的文档手册进行查阅将更方便，也更快捷。好在有大量的经过整理的Linux API手册，
这里推荐一本比较详尽且与囊括了最新的Linux API的一本Manpages整理成的CHM手册。

对于Unix/Linux下的开发，《The Linux Programming Interface》可谓是面面俱到，实在是必备的一本书籍。当前《The Linux Programming Interface》在中国并没有引进，网络上也没有对完整的电子版可供下载，作者只是放出了本书的部分章节的PDF，不过从本书作者的个人网站上得到如下消息:
A number of people have asked about an ebook version of TLPI. There will be an ebook version.
Currently, the publisher plans to release the ebook in January 2011. In the meantime,
if you purchase the paper copy direct from No Starch Press,
they will provide you with a copy of the ebook when it becomes available.
(When the ebook becomes available, you will be able to purchase it independently of the print version.)
看来在2011年1月份，我们就可以下载到本书的完整电子版了，期待中
