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.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
