+ <td><i>MDK 0.1.1 release</i></td>
+ <td>
+ New version of MDK. This version provides the
+ following new functionalities:
+ <ul>
+ <li> <i>mixvm</i> provides virtual execution
+ time statistics after each invocation of run or
+ next.
+ <li> <i>mixvm</i> can trace instructions as
+ they are executed. <i>tron/troff</i>
+ commands turn off/off instruction tracing.
+ <li> <i>mixvm</i> accepts a new command,
+ w2d, which computes the decimal value of a MIX
+ word given as a series of bytes (e.g.
+ <i>- 01 00 34 32 22</i>).
+ <li> Symbols can be defined at the
+ <i>mixvm</i> prompt with the new command
+ <i>ssym</i>.
+ <li> <i>mixvm</i> accepts a new command,
+ <i>weval</i>, which allows the evaluation
+ of MIXAL w-expressions.
+ </ul>
+ In addition, some bugs have been fixed. The most
+ outstanding one is that expressions containing
+ strings of successive '*' are now correctly
+ evaluated.
