Thanks Dan.

Do any emulators support the CP/AM card ?

In any case, if I'm thinking of developing software for the Apple II then the "auto-run on boot" feature would have to for all CP/M cards / Z-80 Cards.

This isn't guaranteed, so it means I'll continue dabbling with Turbo Pascal on CP/M (because it is so familiar / easy for me), but then I'll probably switch to Apple Pascal or Kyan or some other which does support auto-run on disk boot.
