lunas

an Uxntal assembler written in Lua

how to use

download or clone this repository, then

• in Linux or MacOS (possibly), just run the lunas file like a program

  ./lunas myapp.tal myapp.rom

• in Windows, there's no support for shebangs, so you have to directly run the Lua interpreter over said file

  lua .\lunas myapp.tal myapp.rom

dependencies

there are no other dependencies apart from needing a Lua 5.4 interpreter, the file is totally self contained

features

• better error reporting and warnings
• easily modifiable and extendable (possibly (I have not tried this))
