The best Programming books?

I don't think so. I used to do a lot of work in SAS. SAS has been pushing GUI programming for some time, I think because they are trying to target managers. They even denied a paper I wrote for a conference where I showed how to do something you could do in a GUI, but I did it with code for finer control. The reason they rejected it was "it was too technical."

There are still a lot of SAS programmers writing their code in the text editor. I think there always will be.

Take a look at project Euler. There are still people writing assembly language code there. Higher level languages have not gotten rid of that, so I don't think GUI programming or whatever will get rid of text programming.
