A friendly ARM assembler and simulator for educational use.
Visual2 will run on Windows, OS-X and linux and is distributed as binaries. The total disk space requried is approximately 200MB.
- Download the latest Visual2 binary release for your platform
- Unzip the download anywhere on your system: the extracted files will use approximatly 200MB.
- You can then delete the downloaded zip file.
- To run the program double-click the executable
VisUAL2.exe
which can be found in the top-level unzipped directory. - No installation is required
- Open the downloaded DMG file
- Drag the Visual2-darwin-x64 directory into the applications directory as normal to install
- The following warning might appear when you first try to launch the application: "Visual2" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. In that case:
- Open
System Preferences
- Go to
Security & Privacy
- In the bottom rigth corner, under
General
, click 'Open anyway' - Click 'Open' in the pop up window
- If Visual2 does not seem to start, simply quit the application and re-launch
- Open
- It seems to work on most distros
- Unzip the download
- (Thanks Haydn Perry). Some unzip tools (notably the GUI unzip on Ubunto) do not correctly translate the zipped file paths from Windows to Linux form and so mangle paths. The work-around is to use
unzip
which does this correctly.
- (Thanks Haydn Perry). Some unzip tools (notably the GUI unzip on Ubunto) do not correctly translate the zipped file paths from Windows to Linux form and so mangle paths. The work-around is to use
- Change the binary (Visual2) to give it execute permission
chmod a+x VisUAL2
- Run Visual2
- In case of problems check the documentation on running electron applications on your distro. Contact me if you'd like access to the source repo Visual2 and compile Visual2 from source, which may be easier to run under linux.
visual2.exe [-d|--debug] [-h|--help]
- Ctrl-Shift-I (in debug mode) open dev tools to show test results etc
See the documentation site.
This is an open access repo holding releases of Visual2.
Anyone wanting to see the closed code and/or contribute contact me and I can add.
Binaries will be posted here. Please give bug reports and user feedback on binaries as issues on this repository.
