<content type='text'>
Userland sources live in usr/ (fits the Unix theme better than 'c').
SDCC output .bin blobs land in build/usr/ with the other build artifacts
instead of littering the source dir; programs.asm INCBINs them from there.
Byte-identical ROM.

- directories generalized: dir_find/dir_add/dir_remove take any dir inode;
  every dir carries '.'/'..'. Path resolution (resolve / resolve_parent) walks
  absolute or cwd-relative paths; open/mkdir/chdir/remove/opendir take paths.
- per-process cwd: PROC_CWD in the PCB (root by default, inherited on fork);
  sys_chdir sets it, sys_opendir points ls at any directory.
- shell: 'cd' builtin + cwd-aware prompt; 'mkdir'/'ls &lt;dir&gt;' tools; 'exit'/'quit'
  and EOF call poweroff() (clean shutdown via the $ED opcode -&gt; reliable save).
- three HL/buffer-clobber bugs fixed along the way: resolve didn't preserve the
  path cursor across dir_find; cur_cwd clobbered HL; resolve_parent set the final
  name before resolve() overwrote wFsNameBuf (now copied after).
- verified: nested mkdir/cd/save, multi-level paths (cat docs/sub/b), and the
  whole tree persists across a reboot.
- README: document directories + the poweroff opcode.

<title>fs rewrite stage 2: inodes + root directory (block-based, persistent)</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4f2d40ca35e0e39886dc881d06256fc25ba27a77</id>
<content type='text'>
- fs.asm: a real block filesystem on the persistent block device - superblock,
  block/inode bitmaps, a 32-entry inode table (type, size, 8 direct block
  pointers -&gt; files up to 2 KiB), and a root directory of 16-byte entries.
  Metadata cached in WRAMX; one-block data cache streams file/dir blocks.
- same syscall interface (open/getb/putb/list/remove) -&gt; tools unchanged;
  ls now enumerates until flist() runs out (16 files, was hardcoded 8).
- old 8-slot WRAM FS removed; cart RAM partitioned: process banks 0-7, disk 8-11.
- two register-clobber bugs fixed: alloc_block/alloc_inode returned the
  bitmap-block number (write_bitmap clobbers C); db_use loaded the wrong block
  on a transition (db_flush-&gt;write_block clobbers C) -&gt; multi-block files broke.
- verified: 10+ files, multi-block (300-byte) files, delete, and persistence
  across reboots. Debug 'blk' disk tool retained (fill/peek).
- README: document the block filesystem.

<title>filesystem: a RAM FS (WRAMX) + ls/cat/save/rm; wc/head read files</title>

<content type='text'>
- fs.asm: 8-slot RAM filesystem in WRAMX ($D000-$DFFF), name[8]+len[2]+data[502];
  syscalls open/close/getb/putb/list/remove, seeded with a 'readme' at boot.
- libc: open/close/fgetc/fputc/flist/fremove wrappers + O_READ/O_WRITE/NOFD.
- tools: ls, save (stdin-&gt;file, one line), rm; cat/wc/head now take a file arg.
- fix: syscall dispatch clobbers A, so putb takes its byte in E (was reading the
  handler's low address byte, 0xDC); ls NUL-terminates 8-char names.
- verified: save/cat/ls/rm cycle; wc readme -&gt; '2 7 38'; head -n 1 readme.
- README: document the filesystem + the A-clobber ABI note.
