Well I started (re)learning ASM today, and I was actually understanding most of it, but I had one question: Is there a way to store a variable (for example: a hi score) without using an appvar?

Well, if you're coding for an ION-compatible shell, all changes to your program during execution are saved. If you're going no-stub, you can always locate the original copy of your program in memory and save the bytes there (when running nostub, your program's name is in OP1, ready for lookup).

Alright thanks. I'll try giving that a shot, but I think I'll probably need more space than available, so I'll probably just end up doing an appvar

Aren't you limited to 8.x KB of executable code when using Ion?

It's worse in nostub though, because there are two copies of the program in memory, and TI even makes it error if the program is over 8.x KB.
