Here is a solution for part of the SPO600 64-bit Assembly Language Lab but implemented in 6502 Assembly language for use with the 6502 Emulator:

; ROM routines
define		SCINIT		$ff81
define		CHROUT		$ffd2

START:
       JSR SCINIT      ; Initialize and clear the screen
	LDX #$00	; Loop index (0-9)

LINE:
	TXA		; Put loop index into A
	CLC
	ADC #$30	; Add $30 (ASCII '0')
	STA MSG_DIGIT	; Store into the string

	LDY #$00	; Character number to print
CHARACTER:
	LDA MSG,Y	; Get a character
	BEQ DONE	; Done if it's NULL
	JSR CHROUT	; Print character
	INY		; Increment char number
	JMP CHARACTER   ; Process next character

DONE:
	INX		; Increment loop index
	CPX #10		; Is it 10?
	BNE LINE	; If not, print next line
	BRK		; Stop

MSG:
	DCB "L","o","o","p",$20
MSG_DIGIT:
	DCB "#",$0D,$00

; Note that MSG_DIGIT is a position in
; the middle of the message - not a 
; separate message.
