Emulators

Emulators provide a way to run binaries from other operating systems.

To facilitate navigating in this list, projects are categorized by their purpose, authorship, and current state. Each project entry lists the categories it pertains to. Clicking on a category name will bring a listing of all projects in that category.

Additionally, a list of related projects is provided where applicable. Each element in that list is a link to the corresponding project entry.

Clicking on a project's name will bring this project's entry as a separate page (a permalink).

Hovering your mouse over the version information of a project shows the list of changes introduced by that version.

Sort controls below allow you to order the list either lexicographically or by the most recent release date, in both directions.

Using the Search control, you can select projects by name. Shell-style globbing patterns (wildcards) are accepted.

* Licensed under GPLv3 or later.

* mixal

** Location of listing file

By default, mixal creates listing file in the current working directory.

* mixsim

** The .mixsim file
When started in terminal mode, the utility searches for file `.mixsim'
in the current working directory and reads it, if present. The file
may contain any mixsim commands.

** The set of terminal commands is improved to make it compatible with GDB.

** New command, PASSCOUNT
Set the number of crossings after whcih to clear the breakpoint.

** Removed optional second argument to BREAK.
The functionality of `BREAK <ADDR> <COUNT>' is now obtained by two
commands:

BREAK <ADDR>
PASSCOUNT <N> <COUNT>

** New command DELETE.
An alias to CLEAR.

** New command IGNORE
Sets the number of hits to ignore before enabling the breakpoint.

** New commands ENABLE and DISABLE
Enable or disable the breakpoint with the given number.

** New command RUN
It is an alias for GO.

** New command SOURCE
Execute a file of mixsim commands.

** New command ADDRESS.
This command takes as its argument a breakpoint manipulation command
(DELETE, IGNORE, ENABLE, DISABLE, PASSCOUNT) with arguments
appropriate for the associated command.  However, the first argument
of the corresponding command is treated as MIX address, instead of a
breakpoint number.

** New command INFO.
An alias to LIST.

** New command SHELL.
Executes a subordinate shell or a shell command. Abbreviated to !.

** NEXT and STEP take optional argument.
The argument, if given, specifies number of instructions to
execute. Default is 1.

** INFO BREAK takes an optional argument specifying breakpoint number to list.
If prefixed with ADDRESS, it treats the argument as a MIX location and
lists all breakpoints set on that location.
