Not compile, assemble (translate to machine code), into one object

For Mac OS I believe pk2cmd will work with the PICKit2. pk2cmd is a
simple command line tool to program a hex file.

It's used to link several objects into one final binary. However, a
common file format is actually hex as mentioned above, which is a
text file that describes the bits that should be written into the
program memory in the PIC.
