I'm giving a try to MIPS Assembly by reading the MIPS Assembly Language Programming book, but I don't know the tools that are suggested and that are optional. What I need is

  • Tools that are needed
  • What is the best emulator and how to configure it?

At the time I just have cross-compiled binutils targeted to mips-elf.

I'm using Linux Ubuntu Hardy Heron

+2  A: 

spim seems to be the classic MIPS simulator.

@Nathan: spim is fairly straightforward to use. There *is* a gcc MIPS toolchain. There are also MIPS CPUs produced today in the embedded world.
