Using the TTL and program port

Now I know the gut reaction of all you good, community-minded CD users is to point me to a search of the forums for this information, but I have already done that. After spending an hour or two looking on several websites, I could not find a complete explanation of how the TTL (and program) port works and how to use it. I understand the topic might be too big for a single resource to cover it, but even an introduction is lacking. Some of the things I'd like to know are
  • what does the protocol specify (i understand it is very loose)
  • pin out chart (specific to RC/Robovation)
  • What do the functions in usart.h actually do
  • a (well) documented example of its use
Of course, you can help the whole community out by recording this information in a FIRSTwiki article about the TTL port. Thanks.
