Description

From list:

I know that not all facts can be enumerated, but I had expected there be a catalog of common facts and their values somewhere, but there seems not to be. The Facter page [1] and API documentation [2] give rather scanty information about anything, yet alone list any values.

This doesn’t help much with generated documentation but does mean Facts can be self-documenting per resolution.

I’ve squashed and pushed all my actual documentation to github at https://github.com/barn/facter/tree/tickets%2Fnext%2F5394-Improve_Facter_fact_value_documentation

Now we just need to work out how to combine the two elements.
