C 6.0 comes with a command line version of the QuickC
compiler, updated to compile most of the new C 6.0 constructs
(ANSI compliance, based pointers, etc.).  The QuickC
environment per se is not included, but the Programmer's
Workbench/compiler/CodeView/advisor/browser combination gives you 
same same integration and ease of use that QuickC gave you -- editing,
compiling, debugging in the same environment, pull down menus
and dialog boxes for setting compile/link options, on-screen
help for all the run-time library and error messages, etc. etc.

In short, C 6.0 doesn't actually include QuickC, but it gives
you everything that QuickC gave you, and a lot more.
