Code-generation diagnostics

Code-generation diagnostics use the E5000-E5999 range.

E5001 - Missing toolchain

• Category: Code Generation
• Explanation: ca65 or ld65 cannot be found, so the compiler cannot produce a ROM.

• Trigger:

  python -m nes_pascal.cli examples/minimal.nsp -o build/minimal.nes
  

  with cc65 absent from PATH.

• Expected compiler output:

  E5001: missing toolchain component: ca65 and ld65.
  

• Suggested fix: Install cc65 and add ca65 and ld65 to PATH.

E5002 - Toolchain failure

• Category: Code Generation
• Explanation: ca65 or ld65 returned a nonzero exit status.

• Trigger:

  ca65 or ld65 rejects its generated input
  

• Expected compiler output:

  E5002: ca65 failed.
  
  <tool output>
  

• Suggested fix: Read the included tool output and correct the underlying Assembly or linker configuration problem.
