Armtal (A custom assembly like language.)

Note that this is not the final version, this is just V1.

How to write a script

Making a script

Make a new file and end it with .armt. Go in the config.json and change the script variable's value to the name of your script.

Running a script

If you wrote a script, just run the compiler script and it will run.

Instaling or writing a library

Writing a library

Make a python script and create all your functions. Make a dictionary called Cmds. The name of each element is what you want it to be in the script. The value should be a list. The first thing in the list is the function. The second thing is how many arguments your command takes.

Installing a library

It is very easy. Just put the python file in the same folder as the compiler. Go into the config.json file and add the name of it to the libraries list.
