What Assembler would anybody reccomend me having a go with, i.e.
preferably the most easy to use :)

Feature`s don`t neccesarily top my needs, as I won`t be doing any
games in MC, just wanting to learn the language, and be able to try
a few small routines.

If you're looking for tools which run entirely on the Sam, then Comet  
is your best bet.

If you're running SimCoupe on a PC or Mac or unix box, then naturally  
I will suggest pyz80:

You write your assembly as text files in your favourite text editor  
(using familiar Comet syntax) then run pyz80 with them: it spits out  
a disk image which you can load into SimCoupe directly. You can see  
your code running within seconds of typing it.

Cheers,
Andrew
