TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
There is no difference. One company's user's guide is another's user's
manual. In the microprocessor world, what are called "user guides" or "user
manuals" are anything but. A better term would be "user configuration
manuals" or something similar because they contain information primarily on
how a device works, sprinkled with information how registers are programmed.
Microprocessor programming instructions are usually found in something
called a "Programmer's Reference Manual" and again, most of the information
is in table format...very little procedural information.
