NAME

       hercules — System/370, ESA/390 and z/Architecture Emulator

SYNOPSIS

       hercules [-f config-file]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the hercules program.

       This  manual  page  was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original
       program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it has documentation in  HTML  format;  see
       below.

       Hercules is an open source software implementation of the mainframe System/370 and ESA/390
       architectures, in addition to the new 64-bit z/Architecure.  Hercules  runs  under  Linux,
       Windows 98, Windows NT, and Windows 2000.

OPTIONS

       -f        Use a config file other than /etc/hercules/hercules.cnf

SEE ALSO

       The  programs are documented fully by The Hercules System/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture
       Emulator  available in /usr/share/doc/hercules/html.

AUTHOR
