Re: A83: learning asm
I must say that I learnt z80 asm on the 83 as almost the first programming
language I know, I just started with Ahmed's Journals that gave me a
little starting position but some examples were wrong, then when movax
had explained to me how the graphbuffer and that stuff worked I have just
learnt myself from instruction lists, all source codes are just hard to
understand.
