I would prefer appv in stead of apvr, but that's just a minor thing. It would indeed be very usefull and handy!

What I'm talking about is using the strs the same way as the lists.  I mean like instead of
1→{L1+1}
it would be
1→{Str1+1}

As for the corruptions, I'm talking about what the commands list says.
L2--not for MirageOS programs
L5--"disp", "ClrHome", and "output" corrupt
L6--any buffer drawing corrupts

It's in the documentation.
Could the 'strings' be applied to the same use as the 'lists'?
Or are they some different type of pointer?

They are somewhat different. Str1 is a static pointer, while L1 is a saferam area.
Essentially, the difference is that L1 can be freely modified and changed, but has a fixed size. Str1 can also be modified or changed (though it can be a bit more of a pain sometimes), but can have variable size. That said, other programs can access L1, but not the Str1 you've stored in the first program. This is because L1 is stored in a dedicated RAM area, while Str1 is defined as part of your program and temporarily takes up RAM when that program that uses it is run.
Str1 (Or any Str, Pic, or GDB pointer) isn't just used for numbers either. It can be used for strings, sprite data, lists, etc.

For example:
[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF]->Pic1
is the same as
[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF]->Str1 or even [FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF]->GDB3Z.

What you point to depends on what you need the data for.

Also, the 'corruptions' don't always corrupt the saferam area.
For example, modifying L6 modifies the buffer, so you can use it for various things such as an aligned 16x16 sprite routine or flipping the screen.
L3 acts the same way, except that it modifies the back-buffer.

Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

I feel retarded in asking, but how do you display variables? If I just say

:Disp A

I get some retardedness from that calc

P.S. I read both manuals, good job dude, I like it

Disp A                       gives you the garbage located at pointer A.
Disp A>Dec                gives you the decimal value of A.
Disp A>Char/>Frac      gives you the corresponding ASCII character.

so to answer your question, add >Dec on the end of A to display the value.

What you are looking for is Disp A>Dec. (The >Dec can be found under the math menu)

>Dec tells the compiler to display as a number.  Without this, Axe tries to display the String that is A, haha which there is none so it messes up and displays Strings from places in Memory.

Disp A>Dec, where >Dec is the token in the math menu.
When you do Disp A, you display a string starting at the Ath byte of memory.

Ah, and to clear something up, when you make sprite using hexpix, you havve to store it into a pic, and THEN recall it?

What do you mean by Store it into a pic?  If by store into a pic, you mean recall the Hex and store it to a pointer

[FFABABA101010122]->Pic1

Then that is correct.  You can then display the sprite by using Pt-On(X,Y,Pic1

He means the HEXPIC program in the tools directory of the download. I've never used it, so I can't answer.
