The PC/XT used a clock/data protocol directly into an interrupt driven shift

pseudo-RS-232 format but with the bit windows timing relaxed to allow for for
microcoding. The keyboard is dominate but the buss direction can be reve

How far along is the documentation? If we're close to a beta, could

Hi all,
Dave Turner mentioned ctwm in the "devuan ascii - how much of systemd is
