In accordance with deciding to wrap up my ASM tutorials, I've uploaded a new version of lesson 13.

Sweet Hot_Dog, I'll have to give them a read through. I got busy after I had read the first few and didn't see what other things you covered.

I put up the new lesson 14.  Now I'm working on the appendices, and I should be ready to release the whole kitten-kaboodle in October!

Cool! I wonder if this might get featured on ticalc.org? I guess you would probably need to request it, though, since they do not feature stuff on their own unless it's for 68K calcs.

Also please do not delete the old lesson 13/14 yet, I am curious how many downloads this got total so far.

I'll just leave them up.  Once the full release is available, it's not going to matter much

A couple things I noticed: You don't actually have to have different .asm files for each page. The defpage() macro is all that matters. Also, you can get the page number of a label by shifting it right by 16 (SPASM stores the label values as 24-bit)

True on both cases.  But in this case, I'll just leave the lesson the way it is.  I have had no experience with either of those two points, and I would hate to send a lesson full of errors.

Yeah, you should just wait until I'm completely finished.  Then you can download everything you need as a group

When done you should put them in the staff downloads section I think, in the programming tools section. It might be easier to find for people around here.
