Welcome to the FreeBSD System Programming book. Please note that this is a work in progress and feedback is appreciated! please note a few things first:

• We have written the book in a new format. I have read many programming books that have covered many different areas. Personally, I found it hard to follow code with no comments or switching back and forth between text explaining code and the code. So in this book, after chapter 1, I have split the code and text into separate pieces. The source code for each chapter is online and fully downloaded able. That way if you only want to check out the source code examples you can view them only. And if you want to understand the concepts you can read the text or even have them side by side. Please let us know your thoughts on this
• The book was ordinally intended to be published in hard copy form. However, this has changed and the book was converted using txt2html and some quick edits by hand. Therefore you might find that the HTML formatting is not consistent or hard to follow. We would like feedback on this. Please let us know what style would be the easiest to read.
• If you would like to participate please contact the authors.You can view the work online or choose to download the chapter as txt.
