Good stuff!

My first processor emulator was in VAX Fortran, later migrated to
C. There were Ada and C++ bindings for adding peripherals as
required. Someone used the C++ bindings & threads to emulate a
CRT/lightpen on an X Windows touchscreen. Occasional threading problems,
surprise :-)

Nowadays I'd start from Ada, obvs
