Packed basic09 programs aren't compiled, you see... but crunched down to a
tokenized form (more or less).  To save space on systems, RunB is used to
execute the info.

68K systems are the same, and even go further... the math and I/O functions of
C and other compiled languages are usually handled by shared modules. All of
this, of course, helps save room.

I'm not sure if any company has ever done a basic09-compatible compiler, altho
I believe there have been other such Basic(s).  Anyone know for sure?
