Lots of great thoughts everyone, thanks
... but
What I really want is to write programs for my Apple IIc+. fast
programs.
I want to write a LIFE program (cells, patterns movement) Basic is too
slow. (I don't think I even have integer basic) I eventually want to
be able to write <stuff>.system files that prodos can run.
I was asking about Aztec C cuz I have a copy. Aztec seems to have an
assemble step, which means it has an assembler in there.
The problem is that I don't know how to setup the files so the compliler
actually works. Aztec currently lives on 4 5.25" diskettes, and I only
have
a single 5.25" drive. I have two 3.5" drives, I would rather run Aztec
from
the 3.5" drives.
