# Debugger: Disassembler and Assembler

The Debugger provides specialized disassemble and assemble ("patch instruction") actions. These actions operate on a smaller scope of instructions, disassembling linearly from the cursor or program counter up to and including the next branching instruction. They also allow the user a selection of languages configured on the current trace.

## Actions:

### Disassemble

This action disassembles from the cursor up to the next branching instruction for the selected language. One action is presented per language configured at the current location. Other languages may also be presented if the only thing that varies is the default disassembly context, e.g., configuring ARM will also allow THUMB disassembly.

### Patch Instruction / Assemble

This action assembles an instruction at the cursor. One action is presented per language configured at the current location. Other languages may also be presented if the only thing that varies is the default disassembly context, e.g., configuring ARM will also allow THUMB assembly.
