||
## Open
|
||
|
||
### Todo
|
||
|
||
- Add a flag for bank-switching to the ~zero-page
|
||
- Remove run-scripts and add the ability to run `./cpu.js` and `./assembler.js` directly -- cf. [#1](issues.md#1---improve-cli-interface)
|
||
- [fix] (cpu) Make single-stepping work with simulated keypad
|
||
|
||
### Features
|
||
|
||
- [fix] (cpu) Execute `JMP $FF` on startup / Implement ROM — see [#2](issues.md#2---startup-execute-jmp-ff)
|
||
- (assembler) Validate labels
|
||
- (assembler) Extract debugging to its own module
|
||
- (cpu) Consider adding a VIP-style keypad-based machine code monitor
|
||
- (cpu) Add a mode that prints the display as text, but still animates
|
||
- (cpu) Allow running pre-compiled machine code
|
||
- (cpu) DRY out addition and subtraction
|
||
- [Extended system (secret bonus operations)](../notes/2023-08-07--dev-notes.md)
|
||
- (research) Review CHIP-8
|
||
- read about the spec / ISA
|
||
- read these, and add them to the bibliography:

||
- Steve Losh: https://stevelosh.com/blog/2016/12/chip8-input/
|
||
- https://tonisagrista.com/blog/2021/chip8-spec/

||
|
||
### Documentation
|
||
|
||

||
|
||
### Testing
|
||
|

||
- Minimal LOGO-ish interpreter for turtle graphics
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Closed
|
||
|
||
- (assembler) Pass asm line thru to cpu to print when debugging
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Abandoned
|
||
|
||
- (assembler) Return pure machine code when printing to stdout (and not in debug mode) |
