### Online VS Code Editor: https://vscode.dev

## What?

A program that allows you to Compile (with NASM), Run (with DOSBox) and Debug (with AFD) .asm files by just double clicking on them.

## Why?

I'm Lazy.

## How?

1. Download and extract the `labsetup.zip` from the [Releases Page](https://github.com/HusnainTaj/afdbox/releases).

2. Run the `afdbox.exe` once

3. Right-Click on any `.asm` file and select `afdbox.exe` in the `Open With` context menu

## To always open `.asm` files using `afdbox.exe`

1. Right click on a `.asm` file and open its Properties

2. Click on the "Change" Button next to the "Opens with" text

3. Select `afdbox.exe` 

## Modes

### Debug

In this mode, the program will be opened in AFD after it is compiled. This mode is enabled by default.

### Run

This mode will just execute the program after compilation. This is useful when the program prints something on the screen.

### Changing Modes

Open `afdbox.exe` and press any key to switch between `Run` and `Debug` Mode. 



> [!note]

> If you have moved `labsetup` folder after running `afdbox.exe` once, you will have to re-run `afdbox.exe` for the program to work again.
