	Depends on what you concider cheap.  Ecosoft C is $49.95.  I like it
alot, but it's HUGE.  I've used bother BDS and Ecosoft, BDS is very fast, and
comes with alot of goodies, but is terribly non-K&R.  Ecosoft is standard,
cheap, and has a good library, but it's slow and the modules have to be very
small to compile under it.
