I have seen so many compilers advertised for doing BASIC on the PIC
chip, (PIC16C57, PIC16C84, etc).  Which one is the most versatile.

I have (built) the PIC16C84 Programmer developed by Jens Madsen at
http://www.ebar.dtu.dk/~c888600/newpic.htm which provides a Vpp
self-source from the RS-232 directly instead of the external source.
This programmer is so simple and well designed that anyone could order
the parts and construct it without sapping alot of her time.  I just
thought BASIC would be the simplest and easiest language for this chip,
but as you know, We just can't pick any BASIC compiler, we all need one
that does the trick!

The current ones I know about:

FED Basic Compiler
PicoSaurus (I think it is the same as FED?)
PicBasic Compiler from MicroEngineering Labs
MEL Compiler
