A nit about Apple pascal is that it did rely on some custom machine language routines, but it may have been just for graphics.

That’s interesting about the Apple ///. Honestly don’t know much about that machine.

If nothing else, if you can hunt down SunDog, it can show the p-machine in something higher level than 6502 or Z80. But the IV machine is pretty different than the 1.5-2 machines.

One problem I had getting started was just trying to figure out how to read the floppy images that are available. I obviously didn’t try really hard, but it was enough to calm my sails at the time. Udo Monk has some nice images on his Z80 pack site.
