This is NME, the Next-generation Machine Emulator, an extensible platform for creating & implementing dynamic machine specifications and running/testing/debugging them. Originally conceived & developed by Matthew Fredette at MIT, as TME - The Machine Emulator - this is the continuation & expansion of that groundbreaking project, described here: https://people.csail.mit.edu/fredette/tme/

It is the successor to that project and has the blessing of the original developer. Much work has already been done to bring the project up to par with current standards for host configuration and platform compliance. Many new features have been added, including bug fixes, true multithreading, networking enhancements, updated graphics libraries, and portability improvements. In the last regard, it now supports all major platforms including the major Linux, BSD, Windows, MacOS, and Solaris distros running on any particular hardware.

Absolutely terrible overall. While the conceptual design was groundbreaking, the quality of the code is such that enough was done to fulfill research paper obligations, and no more. While the build system is much improved, the display performance of both GTK and VNC outputs are slow enough as to make them extremely unusable for my computing archaeology work. The VNC display also suffers from severe bugs in keyboard input, e.g. non-alphanumeric control and shift keys do not map, at all, and the shift key behavior is random, and even caps lock doesn't map appropriately. Unusable. Still. And I've been following TME since its release many years ago.
Pros
* Much improved build system * VNC display seems to work better than the GTK display.
Cons
* Severe keyboard mapping errors make VNC display unusable * GTK display is _Very_ odd on my 4K resolution machine, doubles up horizontally. AARGHHHH.
