ISA Memory Expander - Engineering Application

Bank-switched memory expansion module tuned for XT, AT, and 286 deployments requiring deterministic mapping, parity instrumentation, and robust coexistence with DMA-heavy workloads.

Capacity Profiles: 256KB, 512KB, 1MB address-space maps
Parity Modes: Strict parity enforcement and monitor-only mode
Switching: Hardware DIP plus jumper matrix for deterministic layout
Timing Control: Wait-state presets for weak chipset implementations
Diagnostics Tooling: DOS burn-in suite with map integrity reports
Target Systems: 8088, V20, 286, 386SX hybrid benches

The main public test build is a Linux x86_64 host package. It starts in the WordPerfect-style full TUI by default and uses libc-hosted input/output paths rather than DOS calls. This build includes the current Block menu, arrow-key submenu navigation, console mouse menu coverage, and refreshed font attribute rendering.
