- This page gives information about the type of keyboard and mouse you
- have.
-
- Keyboard: INFOPLUS checks if you have an enhanced (12 function key)
- keyboard, and if your computer supports it. It also shows the
- current state of the various lock keys.
-
- The buffer holds keystrokes you type ahead. The standard buffer
- holds 15 keys (each key takes 2 bytes.) Many buffer extenders
- hook the keyboard at a lower level, and therefore won't show up
- in the buffer size count.
-
- Internal modem/serial printer: This lets you know if an equipment word bit
- is set. This is typically only used in the
- PCjr.
-
- Game port: INFOPLUS checks for a game port, and also tells you if the
- equipment word reports one.
-
- Mouse: If you have a mouse and a Microsoft or compatible driver, you will
- get information about your mouse.
-
- Mickeys are a measurement of mouse movement. The numbers shown are
- the number of 'mickeys' needed to move the cursor one pixel (or
- spot) on the screen.
-
- MDD stands for 'Mouse Display Driver'. A mouse driver will often
- have many display drivers built in. Others can be linked on newer
- versions.
