Some documentation files.

This repository contains an assortment of documentation I've written/gathered over the years that may prove to be of some use. It serves as a sort of my little, secure library in the cloud.

Most items will be available in both Open Office (.odt) and Portable Document (.pdf) formats.

Folders

  • ANSI - Some documents on ANSI terminal control code sequences.
  • misc - As the name implies, this is miscellaneous stuff.
  • ps_2 - This folder contains rare documents regarding the old PS/2 interface for keyboard and mouse.

  • Bell Star Codes - The various codes used to control phone features in the Bell Canada system. Most codes are common to other carriers too.
  • Cmd Help - An overview of the options of the Windows standard CLI processor. Useful when you need to get things done in that operating system.
