What are the connectors on an atx power supply?

[shadowjack]

I have not received all my components yets. But I do have all the power supplys. What are the various connections on the generic supply? I can identify peripial power, cpu power pentium special connector, but i can't identify all of them. Is there some drawing somewhere that will show all the power supply connectors?
