Request: Show compiled memory as a pixel image #79

Use case for c64: I want to quickly see how memory was used in compilation. Compilation shows the spent memory on the left side of the source which is great. To find the free bytes, I need to browse the file through.

  • Represent the memory as a 256x256 image
  • Each pixel represents a byte of memory.
  • Depending on the used memory, show the pixel with different color. Colors are just suggestions...
    ** Compiled code and data in white
    ** Included files (!incbin etc) in red
    ** Aligned bytes (!align) with green
    ** Filled data (!fill) with blue
    ** Free memory as black

Extra feature: Hover over the color to see the area details (eg. $1000-$1032)

Intriguing idea.
There is also a simple memory map in the output display window, albeit text only.
