/**@page asmsh @brief A shell that runs assembly @section SYNOPSIS asmsh [OPTIONS]... @section DESCRIPTION A shell designed to run assembly (for the moment only x86_64 is supported). A simple programm is spawned by the shell, and each instructions are runned in the subprocess environment. @section UI For the moment, the UI is implemented using GNU readline with basic support for completion (using tab). The prompt is composed like "asmsh@RIPVAL > " where RIPVAL is the RIP register ( Instruction Pointer ) value in hexadecimal. @section INSTRUCTIONS The shell uses the GNU as compiler from binutils, the instructions syntax follows GAS syntax. For the moment GAS can only be used with the AT&T syntax. Details on x86 syntax can be found in GAS documentation at
[https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.40/as.html#i386_002dSyntax]
The list & names of the registers can be found at the same place
[https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.40/as.html#i386_002dRegs]
The list & documentation of the instructions for the x86_64 platform can be found in the 1st volume of "AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual", in section 3.3 Instruction summary
[https://www.amd.com/en/support/tech-docs/amd64-architecture-programmers-manual-volumes-1-5]
Or in the Intel's equivalent document, namely the "Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual"

@subsection man_reljmp Relative jumps For the moment there is no way to define symbols, so jumps can only be relative to the current address. The current address is expressed with the '.' character in an expression. Relative jumps can be expressed using the syntax :
jmp . - 8
jnz . + 32
