NAME

       xspect, vgaspect - ZX Spectrum emulator

SYNOPSIS

       xspect [options] [[filetype] filename]

       vgaspect [options] [[filetype] filename]

DESCRIPTION

       Spectemu is a 48k Sinclair ZX Spectrum emulator for Linux and other UNIX operating systems.

       The program xspect can be started in X11, and opens up a window to display the screen of the Spectrum. Do
       not start xspect in the background, because it  uses  the  terminal  to  read  filenames,  and  to  print
       information on the state of the emulator.

       The  vgaspect  program can only be started on a Linux console, and uses the SVGALIB library. On non linux
       systems this program is not available.

OPERANDS

       For both xspect and vgaspect a snapshot file or a tape file can be specified on  the  command  line.  The
       file can have the extension .z80 , .sna , .tap or .tzx (the extension can be ommitted).

       The  option -help displays a list of available options. For a more complete list, and description see the
       file README.

       For xspect The following options also have meaning:

       -display DISPLAYNAME
              Open the window on DISPLAYNAME instead of the default

       -name WINDOWNAME
              Change the title of the window to WINDOWNAME

BUGS

       I  try  to  keep  nasty bugs like "Segmentation Fault" out of Spectemu, so if you notice one, STEP ON IT!
       There are some cuter and gentler bugs, which are kept in Spectemu to amuse the user (see TODO).
