I wanted to write assembly to test on our processor made in VHDL and needed an assembler. It was also an exercise to see how functional/combinatory parsing worked in haskell (see Parser.hs)

The ChAcc processor, based on the lab processor of HY-120 course in the institute of Computer Science in FORTH, Greece, is a simple and slow processor which can run various programs. It is an 8-bit processor, i.e., the processor executes operations on 8-bit data but executes instructions which are 12-bit long. ChAcc makes use of the accumulator architecture, which has a special register, called Accumulator (ACC). The register is so named because it can perform consecutive operations (e.g., additions) and accumulate the result. ACC keeps the result of the most recent operation. Almost every instruction works on ACC and the content of a memory location.
