Visual Studio Syntax Highlighting

Hi, Has anyone implemented proper syntax highlighting for 6510 asm in visuals studio (not counting usertype.dat hack)? If so, let me know...

i've started to code on a c-64 assembler language add-on for visual studio now, will add it to csdb later this week.

Pantaloon: Great, I was hoping that someone had already implemented that. Seems like most are happy with limited highlighting or use some less capable IDE.

Jammer: Tested Kick Assembler and it's fine assembler. Thought, of all assemblers I tested, I found CA65/LD65 being most suitable for me.

here is a version for vs2008.

Visual Studio 6502 Language Extension

It detects files with .asm extension.
I'll add some more features later on.

Could you also have it use the .s extension, since this is the standard for doing assembly via the cc65 package?

i've done some more updates, you can now hoover opcodes and see the cycle count for the opcode (it's a naive approach and doesnt know about page boundaries etc.).

i will release a new version very soon and i'll make a vs2010 version aswell, and i'll add .s extension aswell.

I've always wondered why no other development tool ever had this feature.

Probably because 1) there aren't many assembler development environments for platforms where strict cycle counting is necessary, 2) on those platforms where cycle counting is common, the instruction set is usually rather limited so remembering the cycle counts for the opcodes isn't hard.

What would be useful would be the ability to select a block of code, and have the instructions visualized on a set of rasterlines, possibly accounting for sprites and badlines as well (of course not automatically determined).

Oh, and including read/write cycles etc.
