Welcome to GNU MDK.

MDK stands for MIX Development Kit and provides tools for developing
and executing, in a MIX virtual machine, MIXAL programs. The MIX is
Donald Knuth's mythical computer, described in the first volume of The
Art of Computer Programming, which is programmed using MIXAL, the MIX
assembly language. MDK includes a MIXAL assembler (mixasm) and a MIX
virtual machine (mixvm) with a command line interface. Using this
interface, you can debug your MIXAL programs at source code level, and
read/modify the contents of all the components of the MIX computer
(including block devices, which are simultated using the file system).
