Visual Studio Code / VS Codium Extension for CBL-GDB

This is where the build package for the COBOLworx VSC debugging extension for GnuCOBOL/CBL-GDB executables lives.

It is based on a "...free and unencumbered software released into the public domain..." debugging extension called Native Debug. It was placed in the Microsoft VisualStudio Marketplace by "WebFreak".

It has been modified, seriously in places, to interact with the CBL-GDB Python.

If you plan on messing with it, I seriously recommend 1) Laying in a supply of strong NSAID headache remedies, and 2) carefully reading CblGdbExt/CblGdb/development-notes.md. Every time I have to change anything, especially if it means debugging the VSC debugging extension to the Python debugging extensions to the GDB debugger (See what I mean?) I have to carefully reread it, and I wrote the furshlugginer thing.
