Miscellaneous

For convenience the source repository includes some other scripts:

kdfiles.py

This generates two files called kdfiles32.txt and kdfiles64.txt which can be used as map files for the .kdfiles WinDBG command.

sdv.py

This runs Static Driver Verifier on the source.

clean.py

This removes any files not checked into the repository and not covered by the .gitignore file.
