Almost.  Using 'cc', HyerpC compiles the C source to p-code and then
interprets it. This makes for very small programs. Using 'ccn' will generate
native 6502 (and 65c02 if a lnk flag is set) code. Howeever it does not link
in the libraries, it assumes that some of them are present in the opsys file.
I/O mostly I believe which is redundant code with the shell active.
