This is a REPL for assembly language.
Currently it only works on macOS, but I'll make it work on Linux too.
I haven't made a gem yet, so use it like this:
$ bundle install
$ sudo ruby -I lib:test bin/asmrepl
When the REPL starts, it will display all register values and flags:
================== CPU STATE ===================
rax 000000000000000000 r8 0x0000600001782be0
rbx 000000000000000000 r9 0x00007fbf9b0068c0
rcx 0x0000000109dae951 r10 000000000000000000

gs 000000000000000000
FLAGS: ["PF", "ZF", "IF"]

Then you can issue commands and inspect register values. Let's write to the
rax register and inspect its value:
>> mov rax, 5
>> rax
0x0000000000000005
>>
Now let's write to the rbx register and add the two values:
>> mov rbx, 3
>> add rax, rbx
>> rax
0x0000000000000008
>> rbx
0x0000000000000003
>>
Finally, lets check all values in the CPU:
>> cpu
