I saw an add in a magazine for MANX C for the 6502 processor.  Specifically in
the add copy they mentioned the Commodore 64.  I have PC (8086) Manx C and
the package includes grep, make, and a very fast, tight compiler.  I would
assume the same tools would be included with the 6502 version.  Unfortunately,
the commerical version of Manx (the one with all the goodes) is quite 
expensive; about $425 dollars I think.  Let's see, now - how many C-64's could
you buy for $425... :-)
