Developing ASM Programs
Liazon:
there's a difference between using the shell and programming for it.
Use MOS to play all your games and all that, but program for the ion shell because then it's compatible with virtually every shell.
Also, most of the MOS routines were for implementing the MOS browser GUI. they were just nice enough to put in a jump table for anyone to use any of the routines.
However, DoorCS is probably better if you want GUI related routines since it has some mouse routines. I still probably wouldn't recommend it.
The goal is to get to a point where if you really wanted to, you can figure out how to do anything you want. If you don't have time, well be glad you've learned enough ASM that if you had time, you could probably write anything.

3) Mirage OS can run Ion programs, but not vice versa
That's not a reason to develop for MirageOS instead of Ion. :P
Note that Demon is asking which one should he develop for, not which one should he use on his calculator.
I don't know anybody that uses Ion anymore. But, just to be safe, if your program doesn't need any of MirageOS's routines, I recommend building it for Ion. If it really needs one of MirageOS's routines, then build it to use MirageOS.
EDIT: Liazon, you posted right before me. Just thought I'd mention that.... :lol:
Delnar_Ersike:
Well, if you are choosing a shell to developing for, I suggest writing the program for Ion, but making sure you make a Mirage OS version as well (you just need to add some minor stuff like the program icon). And if you are really up to it, make a version for CrunchyOS as well :D .
DJ Omnimaga:
i got for ion, because then your program is compatible with both, not just MOS
CureDesu:
I'd have to agree. Unless you direly need the MOS functions, go for Ion. :)
