For an all-rounder, Proton Development Suite (PDS) might be expensive but its is one of the best. This is a PIC Basic type compiler which supports the older PIC's such as 12F and 16F range, not to mention the newer 18F range. What's bad about it? Well the programming approach is known as "top down" or "flat" code. That is, you can't pass variables with sub routines or call functions amongst other limitations. Free version limitations; 50 program lines of code, limited PIC range. Download
