I'm not very interested in the TI-85, but you could follow my suggestion
and adapt an existent compiler to generate code for it. For example, you
might grab GNU's djgpp (gcc ported to DOS) and make it generate the
assembly code to run on your 85s.
Cross compilation is really no big deal, when you get down to it.
