someone could write VIM filetype plugin for FASM. I would but i am new to VIM so best i managed is syntax highlighting script (attached).

It should be quite easy to make plugin (with folding, jump-to-definition, register/instruciton completion etc.) compared to effort you get - new vi-based FASM IDE.

What exactly do you want to accomplish? I am a vim "guru" by now (six years or so using it, contribute source code).

I normally just edit files and use
Code:
:!fasm %    
to compile the file. I am using the default 'asm' syntax file, but I'll take a look at yours.

1. folding procedures declared with 'proc'...'return' including comments before procedure to fold. Maybe folding of paragraphs (few lines of code preceded by comment)

2. jump to defnition, CTRL + ] on symbol will jump to it's definition (including local labels, macros etc.) Of course it will not be 100% and probably limited to simple file but would come fine. Also something to open file which is argument to 'include'

3. And mainly, resolving fasm error message to list of errors what allows jumping on error inside macro(s) like in FASMW.

and of course VIM allows much more Smile

First, try to accomplish what you want just with manual folding. So 'set fdm=manual' to start with, and then something like:

Code:
:% /proc/,/return/ fold    


To fold everything between lines containing 'proc' to 'return'.

The reason I haven't done something like this is that I don't use 'proc' and 'return' macros; so this isn't terribly useful to me.

However, you could use the 'marker' foldmethod, in which case you just insert appropriate markers in the code (":help fold-marker" for more info). In that case, you would also either want a modeline in the file to set the appropriate fold method, or have a 'filetype' plugin to set things up for all asm files.

Look at 'ctags' - ctags.sf.net

I tried to do that a while back, but it seemed really hard to make vim accept fasm-style multiline error messages. Finally I just gave up and modified FASM to give errors in the same format as GCC.

If you get the errorformat working, please do post it here! Smile
thx

OK, the code that displays error messages is in system.inc, so here's my modified version of that file. This is only for Win32...

I have commented out lines 411,412, 429,430 and 470-472, and I've changed the strings in the bottom of the file... Not a perfect solution, but it works. Smile

Ah, no, sorry. But you could easily write a perl script or something (even ... a FASM code!) to make a tags file.

On the topic of the syntax file you uploaded, I have used it now and made some small modifications. First and most important, you should not hard-code colors in a syntax file - you should prefer to link to 'standard' syntax groups so that the 'colorscheme' settings will allow people to use colors they prefer. Second, I added that a label at the beginning of a line is highlighted as a label.

I am attaching the zipped-up version of the syntax file, v2, for your review.

Hi -

Here's an updated syntax file for vim, which I just posted to the vim-dev list for including in the vim distro. Just put the file in your runtime\syntax directory, and do :let asmsyntax='fasm'

It includes all the identifiers from FASM 1.50, using vim to process the FASM source code and suck them up.

Enjoy!

your file is good (i haven't tested it on-run yet, i just looked at it), but i dislike few things:

1.syn keyword fasmAddressSizes byte dword word
i would rather call this fasmSizeOperator as in docs. And you missed few of them, which are in "fasmSYmbols" (tword).

2. "shr" "and" etc. are defined as fasmoperator, but they should be fasmNumericOperator.

3. fasmSpecial misses %t

4. some registers are in fasmRegister and some in fasmSymbol, they should all be in fasmRegister

Hi!

The file is generated by a vim script, so I would be able to run it against any future FASM release and keep it up-to-date with very little work.

I'll look at your points and see how to incorporate them.

Thanks for that - I do use vim for fasm work - and the lack of 64-bit registers especially was quite a nuissance.. Should probably push your latest version up to mainstream (maybe after adding any new instructions added by 1.70 (unless you already did but just didnt update the header comment?))

Thanks, I also use vim. Some directives are missing (elf64, segment, readable etc.).

Updated comment about supported version, added missing directives and instructions (though not all instructions - need to do deep review of sse and xop commands, or write some script) - after reading fasm sources.

Nice job fixing it - Just one comment (and a change which I made to your file before using it..) in my opinion, "format" should be a FasmDirective, not a FasmInstr.. so that it shows up as blue as well (well, blue in my theme) - otherwise the colours for Format and ELF/Executable/MZ/PE dont match..

Thanks again
