Learn GCC is great! Need ref manual for C....
Thanks for all the hard work on the Learn GCC tutorials. Im cruzin along just fine through them. What I really would like to have is a Reference manual for C that is similar to the "Basic Stamp Syntax and Reference manual" Any Suggestions?.

Creating a web-help like the one we offer for the BASIC Stamp is definitely on our to-do list, but we're not quite there yet. In the meantime, you can use the Simple Library Documentation for help with library functions. You can access the device-specific documentation directly through the Simple Libraries folders in your Learn folder, or the full index of libraries by clicking on Help -> Simple Library Reference in the SimpleIDE window.
While I may disagree with a number of people here that think that the book "the C programming language" is a good book to learn C with I do think that the 2nd (covers ansi C) makes the good reference that you seem to be looking for. That book and the others I've are geared towards programming on a general purpose type computer and not embedded controller type work. Simply ignore all that and take from it what makes sense! :-)
Hopefully a searchable help file on every function and its various parameters will be coming soon.

I plan to expand this feature in the fall to include propeller.h library help (available here), C library help (available online), an index, and a search box.

I wrote the SimpleIDE, a few libraries, and am part of the Propeller GCC team.
it covers ansi C
Thank you for writing the SimpleIDE. Your efforts are most appreciated.
