Description

as a result of the assembler run, we have a symbol table (name -> offset).
what we do not have (yet?) is type information.

if we had that, we could build a uctypes.struct to comfortably deal with the result (like x = ulp.name).

any other ideas?

Research direction

Start with the assembler's symbol table output and the existing ULP result-handling path. Determine whether type information can be produced and how a uctypes.struct could expose results such as ulp.name. Done would require an agreed approach, documented result representation, and a clear way to access the assembled data.
