Maybe.  Of course, it would help if we knew which computer and operating  
system you're using.

If you're running an IBM PC under MS-DOS, then there is the Fitted Software  
Tools compiler.  It isn't public domain, it's shareware.  (It's a pretty good  
compiler, too.)  You should be able to find it around.  You can also get it  
from the folks at Public Brand Software.  (That's what I did.)

Now, as for what the language can do, it can do most anything any other  
language can do.  (Limited mostly by the programmer's imagination.)
