mips-inst
=========


Convert between text and hex representation of MIPS instructions. Used as the basis for the mips-assembler package.

Supports the MIPS IV instruction set.

Usage
=====

``javascript
import { parse } from "mips-inst";

parse("jr ra");
// 0x03E00008

parse(
ADDIU SP SP 0xFFE0
SW RA 0x18(SP)
LW RA 0x18(SP)
JR RA
);
// [0x27BDFFE0, 0xAFBF0018, 0x8FBF0018, 0x03E00008]
`

`javascript
import { print } from "mips-inst";

print(0x03E00008);
// "JR RA"

print([0x27BDFFE0,
0xAFBF0018,
0x8FBF0018,
0x03E00008
]);
// ["ADDIU SP SP -0x20", "SW RA 0x18(SP)", "LW RA 0x18(SP)", "JR RA"]

print(0x27BDFFE0, {
commas: true,
include$: true,
casing: "toLowerCase",
numBase: 10
});
// "addiu $sp, $sp, -32"

// print also accepts an ArrayBuffer or DataView.
