Hi again,
Ellizared - I think that Senix-Ubicom presumed a lot of these symbols were common knowledge and this somewhat carried over into Parallax documentation.  After all, their documents were never meant for the complete begineer.  

Maybe one day there will be a 2nd edition of Guenther's text and a listing can be included in the Quick Reference section.

I feel a bit foolish because I found the @ discussed quite plainly in Guenther's Table of Contents [which I failed to look at].  Guenther does a wonderful job and is by far the best resource due to the indexing, the quick reference section, and the reference section.  And of course the Table of Contents.

There are some odd ball items that may never be of use.  Turning off the Turbo speed is the most obvious.  Reserved words like ZSTR appearing in SASM and SX-KEY seem to have been of use it the past but are no longer in use.  It would also be nice to know what is no longer supported.

In sum, I still place Gunether's book as the best Primary Resource for learning the SX-28 nd SX-48.  And, I believe it can only get better.  For me, it has been an excellent enty into assembly language programing in one text.

I guess it is time for me to re-read the SX FAQ too.
