Make it easy to set up an Assembler project

[BartmanAbyss]

What exactly are you trying to do? The default project is already set up for assembly. Just delete main.c and add a .s file (if that doesn't work with the 1.0 version from the Marketplace, try downloading a 1.1 preview from the Github releases)

[sebastianbergmann]

I tried that with the latest stable and now with the latest preview of 1.1: open empty directory, Ctrl+Shift+P, select Amiga: Init Project, delete main.c, create main.s, copy&paste http://coppershade.org/asmskool/Tut5.S into main.s, save, configure ROM in launch.json, and F5:

This looks to me like the build script tries to compile a C program.

I made this example assembler project using the source you provided.
asm-test.zip
But please note, that this extension does use GNU assembler which has a different syntax than the tutorials from coppershade.org, have a look at main.s for the changes. If that doesn't suit you, maybe try the amiga-assembly extension instead.

Thank you.
