Symbolic Instruction Debugger

Der Symbolic Instruction Debugger bzw. kurz SID ist ein von Digital Research entwickelter Debugger für die Betriebssysteme der CP/M-Reihe. SID komplementiert ab 1978 das Dynamic Debugging Tool DDT.

DR DOS

Unter DR DOS lag anfangs SID86.EXE bei, ab DR DOS 5.0 in SID.EXE umbenannt. Obwohl SID dem MS-DOS-Pendant DEBUG leicht überlegen ist,[1] wurde es in Novell DOS 7 (dem Nachfolger von DR DOS 6.0, nach dem Verkauf von Digital Research an Novell) durch ein mit MS-DOS und PC DOS kompatibles DEBUG ersetzt.[2]

Band 13, Nr. 21, 27. Mai 1991, S. 93, Missing: Debug Compatibility (englisch, eingeschränkte Vorschau in der Google-Buchsuche): “We found only one incompatibility in DR DOS: It does not have the DOS Debug utility. Instead, DR DOS comes with a modernized CP/M debugger called Symbolic Instruction Debugger (SID). Although SID is slightly more powerful than DOS Debug, added capability is not what most users need. Because many SID commands are quite different from DOS Debug’s, it’s not possible to use DOS Debug scripts – files published in books, magazines, and on BSSes – to enter programs in hexadecimal format. You can modify DOS Debug scripts to work with SID, but the process is beyond the knowledge of most users.”

(englisch, eingeschränkte Vorschau in der Google-Buchsuche): “We welcome the addition of Debug, a staple in MS-DOS and PC DOS for years. DR DOS’ debugger SID performed similarly to Debug, but it was incompatible with the many Debug scripts published in popular PC magazines.”
