Tutorial Suggestions

[marsfan]

I learned about this program a from the "This week in Gnome" post a few months back, and finally got to downloading it, as I've been meaning to learn 6502 assembly for a while now.

Its a really nice little program. There's a couple of things that I think would make the tutorial a bit easier to work through, so I thought I'd create a suggestion issue.

1. Currently the entire tutorial is a single long page you scroll through: It might be nicer to break the sections up into different pages, so that it is easier to go back and find where you were if you are not doing the entire tutorial in a single sitting.
2. Support some sort of interactive "grading" for exercises: Currently in the tutorial the examples are simply saying "Go try to do {thing}". It would be really cool if there was a way to support actually checking the assembly people have written and seeing if it does what is expected.

These are really great ideas and I agree with them. If you feel like it, you can divide the tutorial's markdown into several sections as you see fit.

As for the second idea, it should be quite possible to implement by checking the built code for certain prerequisites that must be met.
