Editor and compiler in a 39 Kb .COM file. In-memory compilation, so it was super fast (especially compared to the disk-based Pascal compilers of the time). It was priced right, too, so it got a lot of people into programming.
Some people even wrote little add-ins that modified the .COM file to add functionality. I remember using a debugger like that.
Sounds like nothing today, but that was a much different time.
