Whoa. Microsoft released source code for 86-DOS 1.00 kernel, various PC-DOS 1.00 pre-release kernels and utilities, and the Microsoft BASIC-86 Compiler runtime library.https://github.com/DOS-History/Paterson-Listings

@dosnostalgicThe accompanying article ( https://thebrokenpipe.com/dos/paterson_listings/ ) talks about a #bug in the printed out code caused by a carry introduced into a rotation by an ROL CX instruction, but ROL explicitly ignores the carry, doesn't it? The author seems to be assuming it's the same as RCL CX? There must have been a different reason for Paterson reverting the code to the previous iteration because that one doesn't make sense!
