Hello @coderzxy54 , and thank you for your suggestion!

Sure, absolutely. The goal is to support as many targets as possible, and the Apple II will be definitely one of them. Meanwhile, I've added this issue to the to-do list, and I will use it as a progress page. Please refer to this page for any evolutions and indications.

Thank you again and happy retrocoding!

Currently, the file format generated by the linker for the Apple ][ target is an AppleSingle file. The default load address is $803. It is needed the integration with AppleCommander 1.4.0 or later (available at https://applecommander.github.io/) that includes the option -as that allows to put AppleSingle files onto disk images containing DOS 3.3 as well as ProDOS 8
