Motorola 68000 Assembly Language Extension for VS Code

This is a Language Extension for Visual Studio Code. It adds syntax highlighting for the Motorola 68000 and its variants.

Supported Assemblers

Currently, this extension supports the following assemblers. In general, the grammar's name takes the form of "68k Assembly (assembler name)":

Planned support for:

  • m68k-elf-as
  • SNASM2
  • Sierra 68000 Assembler

This is not a complete list. If you have a wish or suggestion, please use the issue function of the GitHub repository to submit an assembler. If you provide a link to its documentation, that will speed things up.

Planned Features

  • Some kind of linter that will check for errors for the chosen assembler
  • Customization options for comments (think, ; vs * vs #)
  • Common snippets/macros for faster coding
  • A Z80 assembly injection for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive programming

Please feel free to submit an issue to make a suggestion. They're greatly appreciated.

Known Issues / Bugs

  • Grammars that uses * to mark comments: Arithmetic expressions (e.g., 4 + 6 * 8), that include * as an operator, are wrongly marked as comments.

If you find a bug or error, please submit an issue to this repository. A screenshot and informations about your system (OS, VS code version) will help a lot.
