Documentation
-------------

If you want to know how to configure PCjs machines, here's what's been written so far:

* [C1Pjs](/docs/c1pjs/)
* [PCx86](/docs/pcx86/)

For general historical interest, the project includes a [Publication Archive](/pubs/) that covers:

* [IBM PCs and Compatibles](/pubs/pc/)
* [Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC)](/pubs/dec/)
* [Ohio Scientific's 6502-based Challenger 1P](/pubs/c1p/)

For example, the [IBM PCs and Compatibles](/pubs/pc/) section of the [Publication Archive](/pubs/) includes:

* [CPU Documents](/pubs/pc/reference/intel/)
* [Datasheets](/pubs/pc/datasheets/)
* [Magazines](/pubs/pc/magazines/)
* [Programming Guides](/pubs/pc/programming/)
* [Reference Manuals](/pubs/pc/reference/)
* [Software User and Development Guides](/pubs/pc/software/) (eg, [DOS](/pubs/pc/software/dos/), [OS/2](/pubs/pc/software/os2/), [Windows](/pubs/pc/software/windows/))

{% if site.developer %}

Eventually, the project would also like to provide summaries of all supported CPU instructions; e.g.:

* [x86 Instructions](/docs/x86/)
* [6502 Instructions](/docs/6502/)

{% endif %}

Finally, here's an eclectic collection of personal documents, ranging from early PC debugging notes to old program
listings and more:

* [Personal Documents of Dubious Historical Interest](/docs/personal/)
