Anyway, I've got my compiler set up and my first "Hello world" program written (with name recognition, ain't I cool
![Cool 8)](./images/smilies/grayscale_cool.gif)
- Parsing a given XML file
- Loading and slightly manipulating images (mostly bitmaps, and I know how to work with bitmaps so I really just need to read the contents of a file)
- Writing to another file
In other words; I need a few good tutorials about C in general and about file manipulation. And I'd appreciate some libraries for XML parsing and image loading. What would you guys recommend that will get me on my way FAST so I can get back to do things that are more relevant to this project?

(FYI: I'm working on the intro cinematic for TCOL, and I'm loading and converting lots of bitmaps and stuff to include files with PHP but it's getting too crappy to work with so I want to redo it, and redo it good this time)
