A book like The Visual QuickPro Guide to Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger or Mac OS X Tiger in a Nutshell is more likely to answer the questions you are asking at the moment than a Mac OS X book. I don't think that either of the books has been updated for OS X 10.5 yet. This shouldn't be a big problem as I don't think that anything much changed at the Unix level between the two OS versions.

placing it all in the /Developer/ folder seems more logical to me.
FPC should do the same imho (for Mac OS X).

FPC is a unix command line application. Those belong under /usr/ local/ (it's the reason of existence for that hierarchy). Putting it under / Developer would not make it any easier to use, since / Developer (or / Developer/fpc/usr/bin or so) is not in the default command line path either, and there is not a single double- clickable application in the Mac OS X FPC distribution (well, none that does anything useful when you execute it like that anyway).
