Releases

bench51 v0.3.0

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 01 Nov 05:09

Added

  • Vim keybindings in the GUI editor, on by default: Normal, Insert, Visual
    and Visual Line modes, motions with counts, operators with text objects,
    registers, undo/redo, . repeat, macros, search with highlighting, and
    :w :q :wq :e :make. A block cursor and a mode line show the state, and
    gd jumps to a label's definition.
  • A Settings menu with Keybindings (Vim / Standard) and Theme, and a
    --keymap vim|standard flag.

Changed

  • Theme moved from the View menu to Settings.
  • The terminal app moved from src/ to crates/bench51-tui (package
    bench51-tui, binary still bench51); the repository root is now a
    plain workspace. From source: cargo install --path crates/bench51-tui.

Fixed

  • --theme, --keymap and --clock no longer overwrite the saved
    settings; they only apply to that run.

bench51 v0.2.0

@github-actions github-actions released this 31 Oct 18:54

Added

  • bench51-gui, a desktop IDE laid out like Keil µVision: menus, toolbar,
    Project window, editor with breakpoint and error gutter, Build Output, and
    in a debug session the Registers, Disassembly, Memory, Symbols, UART #1,
    Ports, Timers and Interrupts windows. Windows dock and tab anywhere; the
    edit and debug layouts are remembered separately.
  • Monochrome, dot-matrix design in dark and light themes (follows the
    system by default), with Space Grotesk, Space Mono and Doto bundled.
  • µVision's keys (F7, Ctrl-F5, F5, F10/F11, Ctrl-F10/F11, F9) with the
    TUI's as aliases; find (Ctrl-F); inline memory editing; clickable SFR
    bits and port pins; drag-and-drop to open files.
  • Prebuilt releases for Linux (x86_64, aarch64), Windows (x86_64) and macOS
    (Apple silicon, Intel), with one-line installers: install.sh for Linux
    and macOS, install.ps1 for Windows.
  • CI on Linux, Windows and macOS.

Changed

  • The assembler, simulator and debugger session moved into a shared
    bench51-core crate used by both front ends. The terminal app behaves
    as before.
  • Unsafe code is forbidden across the workspace.
