what are all the files in /dev ?

what are all the millions of files in /dev below?
this list is too long to discuss in a thread so is there
somewhere I can get documentation on this?
I've seen "ttyt0" before, what is that?
cheers
scott

We really didn't need that whole list, sorry, had to delete it cause if anyone wants to see that, they can ls -al /dev on their own machine.

But its your devices on your system.
