For what it's worth, my development environment the C64 does exactly
this - it works together with Turbo Macro Pro - an integrated editor/
assembler, and then my (resident) program automagically plays out the
assembled program through the SID into the Supercharger. Yup, it runs
on a stock C64, but having an extra 128K or more Ram Expansion Unit
makes it even nicer.

Due to the extremely precise timing involved in the playbin routine,
it really doesn't seem to work on an emulator.
Yes, this probably ranks as one of the top 10 most obscure programs
ever made. But it's fast, and very non-tedious. A couple keystrokes,
and your program is assembled and playing into the SC. One more, and
you're right back in the editor, with the cursor right where you left
it - this might sound minor, but DOS EDIT drives me nuts, having to
find my place over again.
