GNU MDK provides a simulator of D. Knuth’s MIX computer, and a

it.

New in this release:

  • New misc/mixal-mode.el for emacs (and associated docs), written
    by Pieter Pareit.
  • Error message for unquoted ALF operand improved.
  • Fixed bug that caused (g)mixvm to segfault when reading a false
    MIX file.
  • All translatable strings are ready for i18n.
  • Portability fixes to extend supported platforms.
  • When the program counter reaches address 4000 during program
    execution, it is set back to its maximum value, 3999, and the
    program halts, to avoid infinite loops.
  • Minor documentation improvements.
  • Minor bug fixes.
