✨ NAME(1) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to NAME(1) — the manual page for simulpic, a Microchip PIC 16F84 simulator 💖 this is the whole vibe, let's go 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

simulpic

that's it. that's the whole invocation. iconic behavior honestly 💅

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

so simulpic is a program that simulates the behaviour of a Microchip 16F84 microcontroller 🌈 no cap, it literally pretends to be a tiny chip so you don't have to.

the program hits you with a command line interface and accepts the following commands, periodt:

  • h — gives you a summary of all the commands (the lil cheat sheet, the group chat recap 🫶)
  • l <filename> — read program memory from an IHX8M-format file <filename> 📂
  • dr — view registers 👀
  • dg — view general registers
  • dee — view EEPROM data memory 🧠
  • dpm — view program memory
  • dp — view IO pins state 📍
  • ds — view stack (the stack!! very main character energy) 🥞
  • d [<address>] — disassemble from <address> (or PC if you don't give one) 🔍
  • s [<number>] — execute <number> steps 🚶♀️
  • g <time> — execute until <time> ⏳
  • bp [<address>] — set/clear breakpoint 🛑
  • pa ppppp — set RA io_port state (where p = 0, 1, -, u) ⚡
  • pb ppppp — set RB io_port state (where p = 0, 1, -, u) ⚡
  • pm p — set MCLR state (where p = 0, 1) 🌸
  • io [<filename>] — open inputs file 📥
  • ic — close inputs file
  • ro [<filename>] — open report file 📝
  • rc — close report file
  • eo [<filename>] — open graphic file 🎨
  • ec — close graphic file
  • st — set sampling frequency (# instr.) for graphics file 📊
  • f — set clock frequency ⏰
  • por — power-on reset 🔄
  • q — quit (the saddest command, the goodbye 😭)

💅 OPTIONS 💅

not me checking for options… there are none bestie 🙈

This program has no options. zero. nada. the commands above are the whole menu, iykyk 💜
