Are you sure you want to assemble _on_ the Apple?  I personally find it
nicer to type on my familiar keyboard using modern editors (notepad is
my favorite ;-) and have a speedy CPU do the assemblage for me.

A couple of cross-assembly resources for you:

I found John Matthews' page especially helpful: I patched together a
workflow where I could take the output from my assembler of choice
(SB-Assembler, http://www.xs4all.nl/~sbp/sbasm/sbasm.htm) and put it on
a virtual floppy for testing on an emulator all in one shot.
