@ifinfo
This file documents the GNU @sc{mdk} utilities to develop, run and debug
programs written in the MIXAL programming language. MIXAL is an
assembler-like language for programming a virtual computer called
MIX. They were created by Donald Knuth in the first volume of @cite{The
Art of Computer Programming} (Addison Wesley, 1997).
GNU @sc{mdk} is an official GNU package.
GNU @sc{mdk} was written by @value{JAO} and is released under the GNU
General Public license (@pxref{Copying}), so that users are free to share
and improve it.
@value{PHILIP} has contributed to this package development with many
helpful discussions, as well as actual code (@pxref{mixvm.el}).
