Early Draft of FujiNet Users Manual for ATARI Users 0.0.2

A work in progress User’s Guide and Programming Reference for ATARI based FujiNets is being written. The effort is led by Thomas Cherryhomes. The goal is to provide both a comprehensive user’s and a programmer’s guide.

You can download the most recent render here: https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-manuals/releases/download/fujinet-atari-users-guide-0.0.2/fujinet_for_atari_users.pdf

The source material is being written in XML using the DocBook 5.1 grammar, which is well suited for writing technical documentation. You can get it here on GitHub: https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-manuals

While the User’s Guide revolves around showing new and experienced ATARI users what they can do with their FujiNet, the Programmers guide gives both a reference of how to control the FujiNet from languages such as Atari BASIC, FastBasic, ACTION!, C, and Assembler, but give a consistent set of examples that can be used as a “Rosetta Stone” for each, namely NETCAT, a terminal emulator, and MASTODON, a program which fetches the latest post from a Mastodon server and displays it.

As with everything in FujiNet land, anyone can help! If you want to participate in making this user’s guide, feel free to contact us, leave us a comment below, or join us on Discord!
