Scriptlet to find obsolete attribution years (in lDebug)
I've used this scriptlet:
ldebug/source$ ls -l –sort=time -gG –full-time $(grep 'Copyright.*202[0-4]' -Ei *.asm -l)
Any files listed at the top with last-modified stamps of the year 2025 are suspect.
Early mid December work on the MCP

Late November work on the pre-boot loader
2025-11-30
The prior two weeks we drafted some interfaces and a rough implementation of the pre-boot loader that's based on the debugger. Because the loader is a stripped down build of the debugger, many of its features come for free (or almost so), including:
- Chain loading of other kernels
- Script file reading
- Serial terminal I/O
- Expression evaluator
- Subset of the Extensions for lDebug infrastructure
- Memory dump and edit commands
- Dump interrupts command
- Port I/O commands
- Command line buffer related commands
No regulation post this week (mid late November)
This week I have only worked a little on the new loader, but I haven't uploaded any of these changes yet. I expect to upload some work within the tail of November.
