|
<p>The mmo object format is used exclusively together with Professor
|
Donald E. Knuth’s educational 64-bit processor MMIX. The simulator
|
<code>mmix</code> which is available at
|
<a href="http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/src/index.html">http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/src/index.html</a>
|
understands this format. That package also includes a combined
|
assembler and linker called <code>mmixal</code>. The mmo format has
|
no advantages feature-wise compared to e.g. ELF. It is a simple
|
non-relocatable object format with no support for archives or
|
debugging information, except for symbol value information and
|
line numbers (which is not yet implemented in BFD). See
|
<a href="http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/">http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/</a> for more
|
information about MMIX. The ELF format is used for intermediate
|
object files in the BFD implementation.
