When programming in C (not C++) how does one send information to a

Linux C programming versus Microsoft C programming?

I'm seconding what santosh said about appropriate groups. Just would
like to give this little tidbit of info:

You may also be interested in looking into the driver development
kits' ("DDK") documentation. I'm working on learning kernel-mode
device filtering drivers for the fun of tinkering with the Windows OS,
and the DDK's help file for Win32 taught me a ton about the
architecture and interfacing. Don't know if that would be of help to
you or not, but just was worth relaying on. :)
