Revisiting... secret keys and Easter eggs



Hi,

I've started looking back through stuff I'd written long ago, and one area that had been interesting was snooping through programs looking for various hidden features (we called them 'secret keys' mostly back then; today they'd be called Easter eggs I suppose).  I had created two separate text files containing what I had found up to that time, and I'm aware that someone ('Ramsacker') later put together a 'definitive' compilation.  As I'm looking at it though, I've come to realize that he evidently only had one of my two text files, as several secret keys are missing.  I also found some additional ones in my notebook that I had accumulated, but not enough to merit a whole text file (by those days standards anyway).

So I've started updating a new list, merging the various sources I have (including the list Ramsacker compiled).  But before I get too deep into it, I thought I should ask whether this has already been done recently or not.  Has anyone updated/cleaned up the list since 1992?
