Thanks, I'll get to it and be back in a while and every so often to ask questions about FreeBSD.

Again, the correct answer is: "It depends." :-) C teaches you fundamentals, and it is used in many places of FreeBSD. Python and Ruby, as interpreted languages, are very imporant in the application area, not so much in system programming. While they have certain things in common, there are big differences in the languages' elements. > Do C and Ruby have a GUI like python does?

Allow me to add a little illustration (again simplified, but
probably still worth a pointer):
Recently a bug was reported that the manpage of the awk program
mentions the -V option, but the awk program doesn't support it;
instead it supports --version, which is not in the manpage.
There are now basically two solutions to resolve the bug:
a) change the manpage to reflect the existing behaviour of awk
(requires ability to edit manpage, roff/mdoc format)
b) change the awk source to accept the -V option as per manpage
(requires ability to edit C program)
If you are interested in what bugs currently exist on FreeBSD
and need to be solved, you can use the freebsd-bugs@ mailing
list as well as the bug tracker for a good overview.
