Well asm is very cryptic.... I find myself not knowing what I am doing
unless I comment the source. It takes a long time
however. A better interrmediate solution is to comment each subroutine or
section and explain what it does, how it
does it, and whatever else is important. Sometimes commenting every line is
redudant and it takes a long time to get
things done. On my site I usually comment the difficult routines line by
line like FindPixel and PutSprite because these
are advanced routines that are hard to figure out without comments...
Later,
Matt
