		  <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.

		  <td><i>Documentation update</i></td>
		  <td>
		    The <a href="mdk.html">MDK documentation</a> has
		    been updated so that the description of MIX and
		    MIXAL is self-contained and does not depend on
		    TAOCP. Now, you can learn MIX/MIXAL reading the <a
		    href="mdk_2.html">included tutorial</a>. You can
		    also download the <a href="mdk-doc.tar.gz">HTML
		    tarball</a>.

		  <td><a label="new1">18/11/00</a></td>
		  <td><i>MDK 0.1.1 release</i></td>
		  <td>
		    New version of MDK. This is a bug-fix release
		    which makes MDK fully compliant with Knuth's
		    specification.  In particular, local symbols are
		    now properly handled in special cases such as
		    <pre> 3H ORIG 3B </pre> instructions. See the <a
		    href="ChangeLog">the change log</a> for details.
