vm-translator 0.1

Translates VM files into Hack assembly files.

Translates a file containing VM (Virtual Machine) commands into a Hack assembly language file. The VM specification can can be found in the section 7.2 of Nisan, Noam. “The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles.”

Usage

The assembler can be invoked via command line with the command:

vm-translator fileName.vm

, where the string fileName.vm is the translator’s input, i.e. the name of a text file containing VM commands. The translator creates an output text file named fileName.asm, containing Hack assembly commands. The output file is stored in the same directory of the input file. The name of the input file may contain a file path.
