Looks fine in FX for me, although I only glanced quickly. When I get the chance I'll see how it comes out in Dillo and Lynx. :)
Three times sounds about like the number of times I've started and stopped learning asm because I had to give my friend's link cable back. Maybe this time it will stick, especially with such a great tutorial. |

I saw that you shifted from NoStub to Ion compatible this time. Seems to me like a good choice. You going to focus on game making for the z80 in this version? |

In that case, I'll continue printing the old one because I need a better understanding of the calc first.
Though game making advice would be good because I have little experience in making one. |

One thing I would suggest is that you keep the old version avalible for people who want to learn with TASM. |

Funny, but shouldn't it be 'that the Z80 was the best use...'?

That Hello World source made me laugh... feeling cynical now Sigma? That being said, the biggest difference I see is that it's leaning more towards what CoBB's guide is.

I like having more examples. Example code is great if you are writing a routine, but if you just want to test your understanding of how something works, its nice to have a full program to read. |

Actually, I disagree. I find it easier to digest a programming concept if it's given to me in pieces. Otherwise I'm overwhelmed by the pages of code. |

As to having programs vs. examples, why not have examples for each day but a program incorporating the major ideas after each week or something.
For which compiler to use, how about a checkbox somewhere that changes the formatting of the examples from one to the other? Only if you really have spare time, it's not needed but would be impressive. |

Code: .include "memmap.h" <----- what is this/what does it do?
.include "ti83plus.h" <----- it changed from a ".inc" file to a ".h" file?
.orga $9D95 <---- wasnt it $9D93 before?
<----- what happened to the "t2ByteTok,AsmPrgm" ($BB,$6D) stuff?
I think you should have a page for people who previously used TASM or started learning/learnt from a previous version of the guide, and tell them the structuring changes from TASM->WLA. |

Heh . I copy+pasted the fast ClearScreen code from the guide (which was changed in version 2 so that it doesnt zero out the GraphBuffer, but instead AppBackup).

Ranting is okay; I actually enjoyed some of it in version 2 because it helped me better understand the ASM concepts a bit. |

I know that, I'm not completely retarded, I was making a bad joke off of you. |

the only problem I noticed in my version of Safari was the escape codes....have you run it through the w3c validator yet? |
