maptosym generates no$gmb symbole files (.sym) from GBDK (old) and SDCC / ASxxxx (newer) map files (.map).
The symbole file allows debuggers like no$gmb or BGB to display symboles names when debugging a GameBoy program.
This Python script can be used as a drop-in replacement for the original maptosym C program that supports only old GBDK map files and that can only be found on web archives nowadays.
You will find example input .map and generated .sym files in the examples/ folder of this repository.
