I'd look in that corner over there... yes by the dill pickles.

What kind of question is this? The only header files specified by the C
language are the standard header files. Other possible header files that
would make your, unknown to us, job more easy cannot be guessed at. See:

http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/webmonkeys/book/c_guide/

under section "2. Library" for the standard headers.

Just the header files won't help you a bit, they only declare
(but not define) functions, the code for the functions is in
the libraries against which you must link your program. So
without the libraries header files are completely useless.

I use a non-standard header called easyjob.h that looks like

#ifndef _EASYJOB_H
#define _EASYJOB_H
#define _MAKE_JOB_EASY 1
void do_work_for_u( void ); /* cleans bathroom, does taxes */
#endif

I find this header to be the best out there.

Once, I took a detour which I thought was a shortcut, and ended up
in /usr/include. I was awestruck and dumbfounded.

What is your job and how could more header files make it any easier?

On a Unix system, you can find plenty of header files in /usr/include
and its subdirectories.

As you know by now, if you don't use *exactly* the right word around here
you will have ridicule heaped upon you. Heaping ridicule is considered good
sport and quite witty. If the target has a different native language things
can become even more hilarious.

Try this:

http://www.trumphurst.com/cpplibs/cpplibs.phtml

Those are C++ libraries but there may be some useful leads in there anyway.
I suspect there is a similar page for C but I don't know it. Also try
google with <c libraries> as a target. Try modifying that with words such
as gnu, boost, bignum, snippets, walnut, sourceforge, .... .

The C police will be paying you a visit shortly for using symbols
reserved for the implementation in all contexts, namely those
beginning with an underscore followed by an uppercase letter.

Illegal C programmers will be prosecuted. Or persecuted. Whatever.

We value clear, non-ambiguous communication. That's common in technical
fora around the world. If you don't bother to learn the language, why
should we bother to help you?
Heaping ridicule is
considered good sport and quite witty. If the target has a different
native language things can become even more hilarious.
Again, nobody is obligated to give help for free. Would you rather be
charged for all of the info this newsgroup gives out free?

No, not really. Don't confuse him with C++ information. C can be complex
enough for a newbie.
I suspect there is a similar page for C but I don't know it.
Then that would be a good time to exercise your right to remain silent.
Also try google with <c libraries> as a target. Try modifying that
with words such as gnu, boost, bignum, snippets, walnut, sourceforge,
.... .

Including the word 'standard' in there would be very helpful. Not that
you'd know anything about that.
