You're welcome. So is everyone else. On the topic of point 4 above (4. 
Write your C program.)

A large body of sample source and library routines is on the Aztec C Website 
from a number of contributors and I continue to receive more.

Here's some acknowledgements (there are others)

In particular and insofar as the Apple //e, I should place added emphasis on 
the importance of Phade Software's libraries:

And oh yes, the AppleShell Project (lest we forget:)

And then of course we have CP/M 80 and the Softcard and Applicard and other 
Z80 cards on the Apple II which provides yet another compiler track:

The Aztec C Museum still needs work but I completely revamped it recently 
and hopefully it makes some more sense as a resource.

I also provide other resources for working with Apple II's and CP/M

The CPM 86 and CPM 80 Museum

http://www.cpm8680.com

This website is a Work In Progress of links and downloads dedicated to CP/M 
(Control Program for Microcomputers) which was (and is) an operating system 
similar to MS-DOS but which predated MS-DOS, and which is in fact the 
operating system that MS-DOS descended from. But CP/M is much more than 
simply an early version of MS-DOS and CP/M is very much alive in online 
communities of Enthusiasts and Others who still use CP/M in Old (and 
sometimes newer) Computers and Emulators. This website is maintained by Bill 
Buckels as one of his several retro-computing sites which span several 
decades of micro computing.

And even other compilers:

The other thing that I offer support for is Apple II graphics etc. through 
the use of several utilities including:
