BD_SHELL - is like a UNIX command line shell, but for manually writing and reading FPGA|ASIC registers on a 32bit Local Bus. Supports scripting of course and dumping register contents to a file. It works alongside SUMP2 as a diagnostic tool for chip bringup and debugging.

Fully cross platform compatible and much easier to maintain. BD_SHELL is part of "Backdoor" suite of tools for FPG/A/SIC diagnostics over a simple 2-pin FTDI cable for 1 Mbps UART communications using the Mesa Bus Protocol. The bd_server.py TCP server supports other links such a PCIe, SERDES, whatever you have that Python can talk to, bd_server.py can adapt to.
