To get to it, you enter the commands: CALL -151 (takes you to the Machine Language Monitor) ! (takes you from the Monitor to the Mini Assembler) The Mini Assembler is a very rudimentary line by line assembler. In other words, when you enter a line of Assembly language, it automatically gets assembled into its 6502 machine language counterpart and stored in RAM. You can then save your machine language program with the BSAVE command (I don't remember the actual format of the command at the moment unfortunately). It isn't the most effective way to write assembly language programs, but it is good as a starting point. Also, if your Apple II has a word processor that can save in plain ASCII format, you can write your assembly language code in a text file and use the EXEC command to load it into the Mini Assembler. As for getting programs and other files from the Internet to your IIC+, your Mac should be able to read and write ProDOS disks that you can use on your II. There's quite a few Apple II FAQs out there on the Net; and you should be able to find more information than I can provide at this gawdawful hour.
