well, the best way is to learn from examples, and with the help of a god book.
A nice book (for concepts et al) is by Kernighan and Pike (the famous "yellow" book).
If you are using redhat, also look in /etc/rc.d (rc.sysinit is a great place, but too complex to start with). rc.local is also good.
use cut and paste in parts to see what runs and what does not, and that will give you a good idea.
hth.
