Well, that's interesting and weird.

It was very strange for this to use the term "directive" for the core instructions used in the language.

In actual assembly, the term (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_language#Assembly_dire...) is used for meta information, i.e. the directives are to the assembler (the tool converting your source to a program), not part of the resulting program as such. This created a huge disconnect for me, and I stopped reading.
