Widely unknown as it is developed and used here by me :-). Virtual Processor Assembly. Did it when I moved 68k -> power (PPC) some years ago (well, almost 10 now). Apart from being able to do 68k source -> power object, it has grown into something really powerful. Together with DPS (the OS running on my products) it does allow one (well, me at least :-) ) to vary the level of programming as needed, e.g. one line is a bitfield instruction and the other is a "do" something with some object primitive. I have been wanting to make the environment commercially available as well but making a usable documentation for it without opening all sources will be some work which I keep on being unable to find time for :-). Hopefully this year :-). But it is restricted to power (PPC) processors so far, so I cannot expect a very wide audience.
