I've recently set up an M68000 Assembly code highlighter on here (using gnombat's SHJS), which works when you enclose code in [asm] tags.

Here is a guide to the colour scheme:
68000 instructions
68000 conditional instructions
68000 registers
68000 opcode parameters
Numbers
Comments

Example of code:

loc_13A9C:
		lea	(SonAni_Run).l,a1; use	running	animation
		cmpi.w	#$600,d2; is Sonic at running speed?
		bcc.s	loc_13AB4; if yes, branch
		lea	(SonAni_Walk).l,a1; use walking animation

It does take a few seconds for the highlighting to appear as it is javascript based. It doesn't work on the classic skin either.

Anyway, enjoy!

I completely do thank you. It might be helpful for the community!

I see that you're adding more things from GB to here, the asm tags were good though, it beats having to do [code=auto:0] all the time.

It doesn't work on the classic skin either.

Why? If you're adding a feature you should at least make it available to both skins. I prefer using the Classic skin at most times, I don't want to be forced into using the Wacky Workbench theme right now.

Well what can I say, it was one of my better ideas that I implemented on that forum

It also now works on the classic skin. Feel free to improve the CSS file if you want and I'll upload it.

You should use another color for comments (grey for example). But good work so far!

EDIT: It's fixed, so shut your mouth.

Yeah comments are turning out to be a bit of a hassle. Hopefully I'll be able to get that fixed.

Well, when I use ' it got commend out. Here is an example:

Comment_Check:
		cmpi.b #1,($FFFFFFF5) 'is this a n00b comment?'
		beq.s No_Comment_Change ; if yes, branch
		move.b #1,($FFFFFFF5) 'change comment to a n00b comment'

No_Comment_Check:
		rts

Good example? Can you change the ' to ;? If yes, branch!

So you're saying if someone wants to use apostrophes for comments then I should edit it so it uses a ; instead? I can't do that since the highlighter just adds in CSS code for colours.

[Selbi]

Oh, that sucks... is there no way to change it to ;?

EDIT: I see, you've add a comment function for ; sign. You can trash this small issue!

Sorry for double post, but I have a suggestion: What about changing the color for include and incbin? If I use it in a ASM box, this happends:

incbin 'blah.bin'

I don't believe, this .b is suposed to be in this color. Hope you can fix it.

By the way, normally the comments are in green color on pretty much every highlighter out there.

[Qjimbo]

Are you really suggesting Green on Green? =P
