Here's an idea for the Apple II emulator authors: why don't we have
emulators with an integrated assembler? The assembler would produce object
code copied directly in the RAM of the emulated machine. Or the object code
would be copied to a ProDOS or DOS 3.3 disk image.

Furthermore, why not integrate a C compiler or some other high-level
language? Output options would be the same: the object could would be
written directly to the emulated RAM, ready for execution. Or it could be
copied to a disk image.

I think that these features would speed up cross-development considerably.
It would be a lot easier to interchange source files with the host
environment, across the Internet, and in version control systems.
