Welcome! Someone give this guy some peanuts!

Mistake in Lesson 10: In binary, 7 = 00000111, not 00001111.  Also, 6 should equal 00000110, not 00001110.

Hot Dog, I found a mistake in Chapter 10. You say that 7 = 00001111, when it is really 00000111

Edit:
Also, you said that 6 = 00001110

Yeah, you're right.  Thanks for catching those

IIRC, all you can do with af is ex af,af'; push af; and pop af

That's right, although I'm probably going to talk only about push af and pop af.

Good news, Raylin!  (Uh, and for everyone else too)  I planned the next few lessons, and it looks like I'll be talking about pictures in lesson #15 and sprites in lesson #17.

in lesson 9, i noticed that in your first example using _PutS, you left out the underscore.
Hurray for typos...

Agh, sooner or later, I'm going to make a typo as bad as the one the writer of "ASM 28 Days" made in the sprite routine 8)

*DRUM ROLL*

Lesson 9 is up in all three formats.  Also, lesson 8 .html is up.

Lesson 9.  I also uploaded the HTML for lesson 8.

Lol, ztrumpet, you're getting too far ahead of yourself.

ASM Gorillas will probably use ix and MAYBE iy, but not ixh ixl iyh iyl, and certainly not SP directly.  I'm leaving some of that stuff (including interrupts) for people who want to read ASM in 28 days for more info.

It is bad  :o

For debugging purposes there are times I wished the Z80 had better methods of accessing the stack pointer

One byte registers are ONLY A, B, C, D, E, H, and L.
What about ixh, ixl, iyh, and iyl?  Can't you use those also if need be?

That's a good calc84maniac or Iambian question, since I'm busy for the rest of the day and can't look those up.  As far as I know you can't use ixh, ixl, iyh and iyl in functions that require a 1-byte register
You can (but not on Nspire since TI fails). Otherwise we wouldn't even name them -- you don't see sph and spl.

Oh, well in that case...however there's no need, Ztrumpet, to mention ixh ixl iyh iyl immediately, especially since unofficially, you have to use h and l anyways to access these four.

By the way, can you explain further why these four registers don't work on the nspire?

Speaking of SAD, the turn based version isn't dead either, I'm just don't have much free time either.

You must not have heard, I have the turn-based version on hold, Ztrumpet.  I'd recommend you focus more on your other projects until we find out if it's an indefinite hold or not :)
