There are quite a few mips processors, but there kind of is a MIPS ISA.  This is the inst set encountered on the first MIPS chips (MIPS 2000) in 1985 or so, and is a very capable RISC ISA.

Actually, the SGI I'll be working on doesn't have so much as a c compiler, so I may have to deal w/ a cross-compiler--an awkward proposition.  I'll keep yall posted on developments in this area.

I'd estimate I have assembler for about 1/2 of the 6502 inst, with a total of 1/3 of the code (for the table) done.
