I realized the Arm gcc 10.3 aarch64 download from 
https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/developer-tools/gnu-toolchain/gnu-a/downloads 
uses Python 2.7.18 and not Python 3, so the f-Strings and likely more 
cause problems. I suspect at this point there's little point putting 
effort into supporting Python 2.


I noticed a couple of issues though: in efi_debugging.py the Attributes 
text is partially underlined with the non-ASCII characters '——————' 
instead of '----------'.

      Attributes
      ——————----
      _dict_ : dictionay


There are also a couple of typos of 'dictionary':


_dict_ : dictionay
