! is the line comment character.
You can use ; instead of a newline to separate statements.
The Z8000 has sixteen 16 bit registers, numbered 0 to 15. You can refer to different sized groups of registers by register number, with the prefix r for 16 bit registers, rr for 32 bit registers and rq for 64 bit registers. You can also refer to the contents of the first eight (of the sixteen 16 bit registers) by bytes. They are named rln and rhn.

as understands the following addressing modes for the Z8000:
Register direct: 8bit, 16bit, 32bit, and 64bit registers.
Indirect register: @rrn in segmented mode, @rn in unsegmented mode.
Direct: the 16 bit or 24 bit address (depending on whether the assembler is in segmented or unsegmented mode) of the operand is in the instruction.
Indexed: the 16 or 24 bit address is added to the 16 bit register to produce the final address in memory of the operand.
Base Address: the 16 or 24 bit register is added to the 16 bit sign extended immediate displacement to produce the final address in memory of the operand.
Base Index: the 16 or 24 bit register rn or rrn is added to the sign extended 16 bit index register rm to produce the final address in memory of the operand.
