Fedora 30 : Commands and tools that handle assembly files - part 002.

Another good approach to this topic is this Fedora tool.
The development team tells us: GNUSim8085 is a graphical simulator, assembler and debugger for the Intel 8085 microprocessor in Linux and Windows.

• A simple editor component with syntax highlighting.
• A keypad to input assembly language instructions with appropriate arguments.
• Easy view of register contents.
• Easy view of flag contents.
• Hexadecimal - Decimal converter.
• View of stack, memory and I/O contents.
• Support for breakpoints for program debugging.
• Stepwise program execution.
• One click conversion of assembly program to opcode listing.
• Printing support.
• UI translated in various languages.

Let's install this fedora package:

[root@desk mythcat]# dnf install gnusim8085.x86_64
...
Installed:
  gnusim8085-1.3.7-19.fc30.x86_64         electronics-menu-1.0-21.fc30.noarch   
  gtksourceview2-2.11.2-27.fc29.x86_64   

Complete!

Now you can run it with this command:

[mythcat@desk ~]$ gnusim8085

The GUI interface is simple to understand and easy to use for a developer.
The Intel 8085 has seven internal general-purpose 8-bit registers A, B, C, D, E, H, L, and 5 flags — S (sign), Z (zero), AC (Aux Carry), P (Parity) and CY (Carry).
The processor has a total of 246 instructions with which we can manipulate data in the processor registers and memory.
The assembler Intel 8085 mnemonics with the instruction strings, labels define with a named point in the code, the target for JMP or CALL instructions, comments start line with a semicolon ‘;’ is ignored by the assembler and pseudo codes to the assembler that provides some features to the coding process.
For another development assembly tools for hardware, you can find more info on this wiki page.

Fedora 30 : Application packages with snap tool.

Snaps are application packages for desktop, cloud, and IoT that are easy to install, secure, cross-platform and dependency-free, see here.
The install of this tool with the dnf install tool is simple:

[root@desk snap]# dnf install snap
...
Installed:
  snap-0.6-13.fc29.noarch          python2-crypto-2.6.1-25.fc30.x86_64         
Complete!

Let's make the settings for this tool:

[mythcat@desk snap]$ sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
[mythcat@desk snap]$ snap install snapcraft --classic
snapcraft 3.5 from Canonical✓ installed

[mythcat@desk ~]$ snap help
The snap command lets you install, configure, refresh and remove snaps.
Snaps are packages that work across many different Linux distributions,
enabling secure delivery and operation of the latest apps and utilities.

Usage: snap  [...]

Commands can be classified as follows:

         Basics: find, info, install, list, remove
        ...more: refresh, revert, switch, disable, enable
        History: changes, tasks, abort, watch
        Daemons: services, start, stop, restart, logs
       Commands: alias, aliases, unalias, prefer
  Configuration: get, set, wait
        Account: login, logout, whoami
    Permissions: connections, interfaces, interface, connect, disconnect
      Snapshots: saved, save, check-snapshot, restore, forget
          Other: version, warnings, okay, ack, known
    Development: run, pack, try, download, prepare-image

For more information about a command, run 'snap help '.
For a short summary of all commands, run 'snap help --all'.
[mythcat@desk ~]$ snap refresh
All snaps up to date.  

Now we can install an application and run it.
Let's try with the vlc application:

[mythcat@desk ~]$ snap install vlc
vlc 3.0.6 from VideoLAN✓ installed
[mythcat@desk ~]$ snap run  vlc
VLC media player 3.0.6 Vetinari (revision 3.0.6-0-g5803e85)
[00000000019ca3d0] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported
[0000000001a5fae0] main playlist: playlist is empty
QObject::~QObject: Timers cannot be stopped from another thread

Not all application will run on Fedora 30.
For example, I try with the qalculate application and not work:

[mythcat@desk ~]$ sudo snap install qalculate
[sudo] password for mythcat: 
snap "qalculate" is already installed, see 'snap help refresh'

When I try to run it the error was the qalculate application cannot be found.
