## Usage
The Arduino firmware should be fairly straight forward. If you're using a similar Nucleo
devboard you should be able to install the STM32 boards from the Board Manager. The `6502-loader`
requires `python3`, `virtualenv` and `pip`. It can be setup and run as follows.
```
git clone https://gitlab.com/morganrallen/6502-hacking.git
cd 6502-hacking
virtualenv .
. bin/activate
./6502-loader --port /dev/ttyACM0 a.out --start
