Description

Language
This is a language that is used to program the soft processor on intels DE-series FPGA boards.
I know that both UofT and Waterloo both use this language to teach computer organization!

Someone has also definitely made a vscode extension for this language too!

Read the linked Nios-II CPU manual first to understand the language and its syntax. Then inspect Prism's existing language support and determine how a new Nios-II definition is registered and verified; done means representative Nios-II assembly receives correct syntax highlighting.
