I know ztrumpet is "going to kill me" if I decide not to write Appendix C

Probably... (jk)

Oh come on at least this Hot Dog doesn't use reverse polish sausage

ROFLMAO

I read over the first few tutorials, and kudos for trying to keep it informative and lighthearted.  I gotta say though, I am quite concerned at your avoidance of hex, such as the confusing .org 40339 instead of the universally-accepted .org $9D93 or .org $9d95-2 or .org progstart or .org 9d95h-2.  I also take issue with B_CALL_STUFF; I understand if you prefer that form, but you should at least mention that most people use b_call(_stuff) or bcall(_stuff). Miotatsu was having troubles assembling a program after reading your tutorials, though luckily he stopped by and gave me a shout, because he was using the standard include file that uses bcall(_stuff).  I'll let you know if I have any further comments when I get to look through the tutorials more thoroughly.

Before I say anything, I really appreciate your comments.

Hexadecimal does come later.  However, universally accepted does not necessarily mean "easy."  I'm not defending myself as much as asking, "does it really make a difference?"

I also understand my error with the wrong include file, and thank you for pointing out that it's an error I need to fix.  However, in terms of B_CALL with parenthesis, I'm afraid I lack knowledge on other compilers, which is part of the reason why I say in the 4th tutorial that Spasm is the only compiler I will be refering to in the lessons. After all, there's many difference besides simply B_CALL with parenthesis.
