I'm guessing from the name of the file that it uses the CTC to
implement a real-time clock for CP/M.

Since most Apple II's will already have a real real-time clock
installed that is already set to the correct date and time,
wouldn't it be better to write a small driver to get the date
and time from that clock, or, if it is running, ProDOS (which
would cover all clocks with one driver)?

When I finish ressurrecting my package to run the Applicard 6502 BIOS as a ProDOS SYSTEM application, it will have a driver as you describe. That was one of the first things I developed.
