I think this idea apply to me. I4ve learnd assembler abt. 15yrs. ago
doing some assembler programs on a EPSON HX-20 which uses HD6301
equiv. to 6800. Later I switched to "C" also on the later used
i8051 family - and now often using a "bit-banging" approach.

BTW doing embedded Systems development just as a hobby / (challenge).

Kind regards
