Part of the attraction of C was a slim light affordable volume, 1cm thick, well written, 2 indexes, easy reading, carrying & reference :-) Oh for a free modern cross reference style C definition in Asc & HTML like http://apache.org has on line for httpd.conf ... Not old PDF (harder to search), or money wanting ISO, or login wanting Xopen. Or a same style K&R#3 ?
