crystal-65xx

This will be a compiler for 65xx assembly. It will create a .prg file that could be run on a 65xx emulator, like vice, or even a real c64.

This is mainly a hobby project. I'm learning crystal, and I used to program for the commodore 64 years ago, so this seemed like something interesting and fun to do.

It will not be an emulator, just a compiler. I was thinking of writing a d64 disk format manipulator too, but that might be later.

Installation

Right now I have just written a basic lexer. I am writing the parser/tokenizer now. You must have crystal installed. Then run shards build to build the binary into bin. Right now there aren't really any dependencies, although that will probably change later.

Usage

Just create a source file, hello.c65 is provided as an example. Then run bin/compiler -f hello.c65 to compile. Names are subject to change.

Development

Lots of stuff to do still.
