Look for a book titled "C++ In Plain English". Half of it
is reference material, the other half tutorial. The tutorial
is from the perspective of having a background in VB.

Another thought is that if your goal is to write code for
Myth, it will eventually need to be compiled with g++.
When in Rome... Since you run MythTV, there's a Linux box
there, right? This may be a good opportunity to get
comfortable with Linux editors and tools.
