Andy McFadden 909bdb1fa4 Tweak web page include structure
Renamed from "*-incl.html" to "incl-*.html" so they sort together.

Moved <div> for all but incl-head inside include file.

Overall this shouldn't do anything but move the magic comments around
inside the HTML files.

<h2>Inline Data</h2>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-image">
<img src="images/t2-206b.png" alt="t2-206b"/>
</div>
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>Consider the code at address $206B. It's a <code>JSR</code> followed by some
ASCII text, then a $00 byte, and then what might be code.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-image">
<img src="images/t2-20ab-1.png" alt="t2-20ab-1"/>

<img src="images/t2-20ab-2.png" alt="t2-20ab-2"/>
</div>
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>Double-click on the <code>JSR</code> opcode
to jump to $20AB to see the function. It pulls the
call address off the stack, and uses it as a pointer. When it encounters
a zero byte, it breaks out of the loop, pushes the adjusted pointer
value back onto the stack, and returns.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>This is an example of "inline data", where a function uses the return
address to get a pointer to data. The return address is adjusted to
point past the inline data before returning (technically, it points at
the very last byte of the inline data, because
<code>RTS</code> jumps to address + 1).</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-image">
<img src="images/t2-inline-tag.png" alt="t2-inline-tag"/>
</div>
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>To format the data, we first need to tell SourceGen that there's data
in line with the code. Select the line at address $206E, then
shift-click the line at address $2077. Use
<samp>Actions &gt; Tag Bytes As Inline Data</samp>
(<kbd class="key">Ctrl+H</kbd><kbd class="key">Ctrl+I</kbd>).</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-image">
<img src="images/t2-inline-after.png" alt="t2-inline-after"/>
</div>
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>The data turns to single-byte values, and we now see the code
continuing at address $2078. We can format the data as a string by
using <samp>Actions &gt; Edit Operand</samp>,
setting the Character Encoding to <samp>Low or High ASCII</samp>,
and selecting <samp>null-terminated strings</samp>.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item-text">
<p>That's pretty straightforward, but this could quickly become tedious if
there were a lot of these. SourceGen allows you to define scripts to
automate common formatting tasks. This is covered in the "Extension
Scripts" tutorial.</p>
