Laser is a cross-platform, command-line-based assembler for the LC3 assembly language implemented in pure C. Version 2 extends the functionality of LC3Tools and LC3Edit through new pseudoops, along with a project assembly mode.
Under the releases tab, there are pre-compiled binaries for Windows, Mac, and Linux. In addition, it is highly recommended that you use this program with an extensible editor like VSCode or Notepad++, and to add Laser as a shortcut in your editor. If all this installation stuff is not up your alley or you'd like to learn more about how Laser was created, take a look at BUILDING.md for instructions on how to build Laser from source.
Once you've downloaded the precompiled binary (building from source is actually
recommended on Linux due to all the different distrubutions and their
differences, but Laser has practically 0 dependencies so it should be fine),
copy the file to either /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin and make it executable.
Alternatively, put it wherever and add it to your PATH environment variable.
