Not sure what the options really are here - I am not distributing just a single file.

Since the files are only 11K, you could've just posted them individually
wrapped in Binary II headers to preserve the filetypes.  That's not the
usual way, but it would work.

I could have gone with a ShrinkIt archive

That's been the standard for about 20 years now.

DOS 3.3 is the target, so a DSK format seems the most obvious.

Oh.  It requires DOS 3.3.  Never mind then.  I thought that, being Apple-
soft and 6502 assembly, the files would work under ProDOS (i.e. independent
of a 5.25" disk).

You can get a2tools

An Amiga toolset.  So far I've been recommended a Windows application,
a JAVA application, and an Amiga toolset.  Considering I'd like to run a
lo-res graphics -- a format found only on the Apple II -- program written
in Applesoft -- a language found only on the Apple II -- and posted on
comp.sys.apple2 -- an Apple II newsgroup -- how about a format actually
usable on an Apple II?

Considering that the people are giving a newbie (you) some free information and software out the goodness of their hearts, you might consider being a bit more cordial.
