It only takes a couple hours to write a half decent two-pass absolute
assembler in Python. I've done it. There are also generic assember
toolkits/frameworks available. Doing real work in binary is insane.
I know people _think_ they're're only going to spend an hour writing
"just this one" program in binary, so it's not worth spending a few
hours developing tools. IME, they're always wrong.
