Stan,

Aztec C is still available.  They have several different versions, the 
most expensive version is the developer version.  It has a Unix-like
command shell with a limited exec language.  The developer version
will compile to either Dos or Prodos.  It'sOs libraries are pretty complete,
and it supports separate compilation, libraries and linking.  It doesn't
have make or lint but it does hacvve the preprocessor.  My major criticism
of this package is that it has slow screen handling.  The screen routines are 
written in C and they run everything through an ADM-3A terminal emulator
so that the same screen commands work on all of the Manx C compilers.

Manx makes the Aztec C compiler.  They advertise in byte and usually in the 
Apple // specific magazines.
