Look at http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/8076/CS/cc.html.
What I think would be much more useful though is a on-calculator assembler
or emulator.  I wrote one in BASIC during calc, but it was slow, had a poor
interface and did MIPS assembly, not m68k.  Maybe after finals get done
I'll get around to porting it...
