An emulator for a CPU that doesn't exist
This is a C implementation of an emulator for the TIS-100 computer, which doesn't exist.
Features
- Implements the TIS-100 instruction set.
- It runs much faster than the Unity reference implementation.
How to compile
Make sure you have ncurses installed on your platform.
$ make
$ ./tis
How to run programs
If you look at tis.c you'll see it opens divide.sys and divide.tis files.
divide.tis is quite similar to the save game format of the TIS-100 game. The main
difference is it doesn't skip node numbers when they are not present, or are stack
nodes.
divide.sys includes the information for the input nodes and output nodes.
It's a format I made up. If you're interested in it, you've probably played TIS-100
and are therefore savy enough to figure it out!
Debugging
If you edit constants.h and define RICH_OUTPUT you'll get a display closer to the
game allowing you to step through the code by pressing any key except q. q quits.
