especially the ability to write your own help, macros, and keyboard
maps, and then write them back into the EXE, resulting in one compact
executable to keep track of.

I remember that one too. But my favorite was the full C compiler (no,
not a subset) that ran on the Z80. Others had said it couldn't be
done. Came on 2 (IIRC) 8" floppies. I wish I could remember the
company name, but my memory is getting old along with the rest of me.

Was it Aztec or something like that?

I had a CP/M card on my Apple II+ with 80 column card and keyboard
enhancement (for that pesky upper and lower case stuff). No 8" drives,
though. A friend of mine who worked at Bell Labs was on me for a long
time to learn C. I somehow wound up with a C compiler, and I think I
might have actually ran it once, but I was a long ways from trying C
out in those days. Still am, frankly, but I don't have need for it
now. You know, those who can, do, those who can't...well, I can't even
do that.
