A Blog on The GDB Python API and ARM Assembler

About Me

A few years ago I bought a Raspberry Pi and that has re-ignited my desire for programming as a hobby rather than a profession.

I wanted to learn about Arm Assembler and I’ve heard good things about Python. I think it reminded me of BASIC from my days of ZX81 and Amstrad 6128.

To debug assembler on a Raspberry PI, there is GDB. And at looking more into GDB I discovered there was a Python API.

Well they added the Python API so you could enhance your debug experiance. That is exactly what I have been doing. My primary focus has been on assembler. I’ve read a lot of great blogs on the Python API but noticed a few gaps. Maybe I can fill some of them and sneak in a fiew links to a good blog as the occasion occurs.

In looking to find a good place to store my projects under a source control system, I discovered GitHub. Always good to have an offline backup strategy. Then on GitHub is GitHub Pages and here we are.

I’m just getting started with GitHub Pages and Jekyll. I’ve got Jekyll installed on my Raspberry Pi so one day I’ll move to a more swish theme. But I kind of like it the way it is at the moment.
