Webcam Programming

I'm would like to write a program to display and capture images from my webcam. Does anyone know if there are any good tutorials for this or what api's etc are available. From my understanding many things in *nix are treated as files, is this the same for a webcam? hmmm I wonder?

Regards,
Rioch

My suggestion would to be start studing code to webcam/TVcapture/video programs. I have nine such icons on my desktop alone.

All found on google.
