Microprocessor Simulator - GNU/GPL

This simulator uses an instruction set similar to the Intel 9086 chips. The machine language is invented and no hardware exists to run it. The program was originally created because real assembly code run on the old MS DOS machines crashed if there was the smallest error in the code.
