These are a collection of tools written for use in bootstrapping

blood-elf

A tool for generating ELF debug tables in M1-macro format from M1-macro assembly files

exec_enable

A tool for marking files as executable, for systems that don't have chmod

get_machine

A tool for identifying what hardware architecture you are running on

kaem

A minimal shell script build tool that can be used for running shell scripts on systems that lack any shells.

hex2_linker

The trivially bootstrappable linker that is designed to be introspectable by humans and should you so desire assemble hex programs that you write.

M1-macro

The universal Macro assembler that can target any reasonable hardware architecture.

With these tools on your system, you can always bootstrap real programs; even in the most catastrophic of situations, provided you keep your cool.
