AfterLifeLochie: `OpenPeripherals` => `OpenPeripheral` (name), apply name convention, add reference to Category:Peripherals, add to Category:Disambiguation_Pages (de-facto). (I probably missed something)

New page

A '''peripheral''' is a Minecraft block which can be controlled using the [[Peripheral (API)|peripheral API]].
Sometimes this is the main purpose of the block, e.g. for monitors and printers.
Other times, it is merely incidental to the block's main purpose.

== Built-in peripherals ==
ComputerCraft itself includes some peripherals. Specifically:
* [[Monitor]]s and [[Advanced Monitor|advanced monitor]]s allow computers to display text in the world.
* [[Printer]]s allow computers to print text on paper.
* [[Disk Drive|Disk drive]]s allow computers to access floppy disks.
* [[Wireless Modem|Wireless]] and [[Wired Modem|wired]] modems allow computers to send messages to each other.
* [[Computer]]s, [[Advanced Computer|advanced computer]]s, [[turtle]]s and [[Advanced Turtle|advanced turtle]]s can be turned on and off using the peripheral API.

== Mod peripherals ==
Many mods add blocks which are peripherals. If this is the main purpose of the mod, it is often called a '''peripheral mod'''. Confusingly, this is sometimes shortened to '''peripheral'''.

Some mods, notably [[OpenPeripherals]], add a peripheral ability to blocks which don't normally have it (such as chests).
