BetterAsmHighlighter (Better Assembly Highlighter)

I was bored and wanted to make something useful for myself. I think others are gonna like this too (I hope).

A Visual Studio extension that adds proper syntax highlighting for x86/x64 assembly files (.asm, .inc, .masm).

Screenshots

Dark

Monokai

Solarized Dark

Features

3 theme presets, customizable colors, supports .asm, .inc, .masm.

Customization

Tools > Options > BetterAsmHighlighter > Theme to switch presets or tweak individual colors.

You can also change colors through Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors — look for entries starting with "ASM - ".

Building

You need the Visual Studio extension development workload installed to build from source.

Open BetterAsmHighlighter.sln in Visual Studio and build. The .vsix will be in Source/bin/Debug/ or Source/bin/Release/.

Roadmap

No idea yet, I'll add stuff as I go.
