Thanks to /u/TGSCrust I've got things working now. In case anybody else is interested in this, I now have a complete working example.

I've been working on an assembler and right now it uses nom. While nom isn't great for error messages, good error messages will be important for this particular assembler (current code), so I've been attempting to use the methods described by Eyal Kalderon in Error recovery with parser combinators (using nom).

Here's an example of a tape loader program from a very fancy machine, the TX-2. The TX-2 was fancy in a lot of ways, but most relevantly here because the tape loader code was set up permanently on a plugboard instead of having to be toggled in at boot time. The TX-2 is interesting and important because it was the machine that Ivan Sutherland's Sketchpad ran on.

https://github.com/TX-2/TX-2-simulator is written in a combination of Rust and Typescript. It's not finished yet, and the UI needs lots of improvement.

https://github.com/TX-2/TX-2-simulator could really use some help

This github workflow builds this project and deploys it to the gh-pages branch of this project whose main branch isn't interesting.

If you're interested, please take a look at the TX-2 project's website and, if you like, the source code. If you haven't eaten in the last hour or so, you might also find it interesting to take a look at the online demo. There's a collection of "good first issue" items too.
