NAME
       pce-ibmpc - IBM PC 5150 emulator

SYNOPSIS
       pce-ibmpc [options]

DESCRIPTION
       pce-ibmpc(1)  is  an  IBM PC hardware emulator. It emulates most of the
       hardware of an IBM PC 5150. The emulation is complete  enough  to  boot
       DOS and run most DOS applications.

OPTIONS
       -b, --boot drive
              Set  the  boot  drive. The default is 128 (the first hard disk).
              Reasonable values are 128 and 0 (the first floppy disk).

       -c, --config file
              Set the config file name.

       -d, --path string
              Add a directory to the search path.

              The search path is used if an input file (such as a ROM image or
              a  disk  image)  is specified with a relative file name. In that
              case the file is searched for in all directories of  the  search
              path.  The  current  directory is always implicitly added to the
              end of the search path.

              The directory name can be prefixed by one of these characters:

              +      Add the directory to the end of the search path

              -      Add the directory to the beginning of the search path

              =      Clear the search path before adding the directory


              The default is to add the directory to the  end  of  the  search
              path.

       -g, --video string
              Set the video device. Possible devices are:

              mda    Monochrome Display Adapter

              cga    Color/Graphics Adapter

              hgc    Hercules Graphics Card

              plantronics
                     Plantronics ColorPlus

              ega    Enhanced Graphics Adapter

              vga    Video Graphics Array

              wy700  Wyse 700

       -l, --log file
              Write log messages to the file specified instead of stdout.

       -p, --cpu model
              Select the CPU model to be emulated, overriding the config file.
              Possible values for model are:

              8086   Intel 8086

              8088   Intel 8088

              8086+  Behaves like an 8086 but with 80186 instructions enabled

              8088+  Behaves like an 8088 but with 80186 instructions enabled

              80186  Intel 80186

              80188  Intel 80188

       -q, --quiet
              Don't print anything to stdout or stderr.

       -r, --run
              Start running immediately.

       -R, --no-monitor
              Start running immediately and never fall back  to  the  monitor.
              This is useful if stdout is not visible, for example because the
              emulator was started directly from a  graphical  user  interface
              such as X or Windows.

       -s, --speedfactor
              Set  the  initial speed factor. This overrides a value specified
              in the configuration file.

       -t, --terminal string
              Set the terminal device. Possible devices are null, x11 and sdl.

       -v, --verbose
              Verbose operation. This is highly recommended.

       --help Print usage information

       --version
              Print version information
