One reference I keep close to my keyboard while coding is the SGI Standard 
Template Library Programmer's Guide. This documentation is available in 
debian package as stl-manual. Other references I use often are the 
Effective C++ series on CD-ROM and the dead tree form of Bjarne 
Stroustrup's "The C++ Programming Language". Bjarne's home-page is also a 
good resource for C++ info and links 
(http://www.research.att.com/~bs/homepage.html). Also, if I'm looking for 
reference material specifically on the standard library that's not covered 
by any of the previously mentioned sources I often refer to the roguewave 
documentation, eg 
http://www.roguewave.com/support/docs/sourcepro/stdlibug/booktoc.html.

You can probably find some more around the place, and I'm sure you can 
find and others on this list will provide plenty of C-only reference 
material.

Benjamin.
