Hi,
I am not sure what you mean by "Porting Tools"
Are there any specific tools you are talking about. Where are you porting them from. You are porting them to Unix, but from where. I think the question is quite subjective.
Can you clarify with a few examples.

Basics for the project

Well frendz I have asked them about the project. They gave us 10days time to know the basics of unix and they asked us to do the list of following things. Plz do suggest me the best sources for these:
1> Write C programs.
2> Write Shell Scripts
3> Try making a 'make' file
4> Unix/Linux commands (where can I find the list of entire commands other the
man command in unix)
5> X windows creation or interaction (GUI)
I have little bit of idea on the first four plz do help in the last one. Thanks in advance. Help me bro's...
