If this option is not given, the user will be asked to choose the
cartridge type when the emulator starts.
-cart2 filename
Insert piggyback cartridge (CART or raw format). This works
only if the first cartridge is a pass-through (currently only
SpartaDOS X 64KB and 128KB types).
-cart2-type 0..67
Select type of the cartridge inserted with the -cart2 option.
When inserting a raw ROM image its type cannot be detected
automatically, and must be provided with this option. The
available values are the same as for the -cart-type option
above.
-cart-autoreboot
Automatically reboot after cartridge inserting/removing (this is
the default setting). This does not apply to the piggyback
cartridge - inserting or removing it never causes automatic
reboot.
-no-cart-autoreboot
Disable automatic reboot after cartridge inserting/removing.
-run filename
Run Atari program (EXE, COM, XEX, BAS, LST)
-state filename
Load saved-state file
-tape filename
Attach cassette image (CAS format or raw file)

-1400 Emulate the Atari 1400XL
-xld Emulate the Atari 1450XLD
-bb Emulate the CSS Black Box
-mio Emulate the ICD MIO board
-nopatch
Normally the OS is patched giving very fast I/O. This options
prevents the patch from being applied so that the OS accesses
the serial port hardware directly. This option will probably
never be needed since programs that access the serial hardware
should work even if the OS has been patched.
-nopatchall
Don't patch OS at all, H:, P: and R: devices won't work
-H1 path
Set path for H1: device
-H2 path
Set path for H2: device

-devbug
Put debugging messages for H: and P: devices in log file
-rtime Enable R-Time 8 emulation
-nortime
Disable R-Time 8 emulation
-rdevice [dev]
Enable R: device. If dev is specified then it's used as host
serial device name (e.g. /dev/ttyS0 on linux). If there is no
dev specified then R: is directed to network.

-playback filename
Playback input events from filename. Watch an expert play the
game.
-refresh
Controls screen refresh rate. A numerical value follows this
option which specifies how many emulated screen updates are
required before the actual screen is updated. This value
effects the speed of the emulation: A higher value results in
faster CPU emulation but a less frequently updated screen.
-ntsc-artif mode, -pal-artif mode
Set emulation mode of video artifacts in NTSC or PAL,
respectively. The available values for mode are:
none Disable video artifacts.
ntsc-old
Simple emulation of NTSC composite video artifacts. Fast
but inaccurate.

-paletten filename, -palettep filename
Read Atari NTSC/PAL colors from ACT file
-paletten-adjust, -palettep-adjust
Apply colour adjustments (brightness, contrast etc.) to the
loaded NTSC/PAL palette (by default the loaded palette is
displayed unmodified).
-screenshots pattern
Set filename pattern for screenshots. Use to override the

-snd-fragsize size
Set size of the hardware sound buffer (fragment size). The
value should be a power of 2. Setting to 0 (the default) causes
the size to be set automatically. Higher values increase sound
latency. Automatic setting should be OK in most cases.
-snddelay time
Set sound latency in milliseconds. Increase it if you
experience gaps of silence during sound playback.
Curses Options
-left Use columns 0 to 39
-central
Use columns 20 to 59
-right Use columns 40 to 79
-wide1 Use columns 0 to 79. In this mode only the even character
positions are used. The odd locations are filled with spaces.

the spaces are in reverse video if the previous character was
also in reverse video.
Falcon Options
-interlace x
Generate Falcon screen only every x frame
-videl Direct VIDEL programming (Falcon/VGA only)
-double
Double the screen size on NOVA
-delta Delta screen output (differences only)
-joyswap

Java NestedVM Options
-scale n
Scale width and height by n
SDL Options
-fullscreen
Start in fullscreen mode. The default resolution is 336x240 and
can be later changed.
-windowed
Start in a window (the default).
-rotate90
Rotate display (useful for devices with 240x320 screen).
-no-rotate90
Don't rotate display (the default).
-fs-width number-of-pixels
Host horizontal resolution for fullscreen.
-fs-height number-of-pixels
Host vertical resolution for fullscreen.
-win-width number-of-pixels
Set horizontal size of the window. The window can be later
resized manually.
-win-height number-of-pixels
Set vertical size of the window. The window can be later
resized nanually.
-bpp number-of-bits
Sets image color depth when OpenGL acceleration is disabled.
Accepted values are: 0 (use desktop depth; this is the default),
8, 16 and 32. Depending on the type of graphics hardware, the
fullscreen setting and current desktop bit depth, either of the
values might give the best performance. Note that with bit
depth set to 16 emulation of colors is slightly less accurate.
-vsync Synchronize the display with the monitor's vertical retrace, to
remove image tearing artifacts. This improves display quality,
but may be not available depending on the current wideo mode
(fullscreen/windowed), the chosen SDL_VIDEODRIVER and type of
graphics hardware. Synchronization is available for some SDL
videodrivers (directx, dga) but not for others. In OpenGL this
option has no effect - vertical synchronization must be instead
enabled in the video hardware driver's settings, if available.
-no-vsync
Disable synchronization with monitor's vertical retrace (the
default).
-horiz-area narrow|tv|full|number
Set amount of visible screen horizontally:
narrow Shows 320 pixels.
tv The default. Shows area visible on a standard TV (336
pixels).
full Shows full overscan area (384 pixels).
number An exact horizontal size can be set by providing a number
between 160 and 384.
-vertical-area short|tv|full|number
Set amount of visible screen vertically:
short Shows 200 pixels.
tv The default. Shows area visible on a typical TV (224 or
240 pixels, depending on current TV system).
full Shows full overscan area, which can be up to 300 pixels
in case of the XEP80.
number An exact number of visible scanlines can be set by
providing a number between 100 and 300.
Note that when displaying output of an XEP80 or Austin Franklin 80
column card, the tv setting will crop the top and bottom parts of text
area, just like a real TV does - in such case setting the option to
full would be more appriopriate.
-horiz-shift number
When the visible horizontal area is not set to full, this option
specifies the screen's area that will be visible. Values higher
than 0 will cause showing more of the right side of the screen,
while values lower than 0 will cause showing more of the left
side. The default is 0 (no shift). -vert-shift number
Analogically to -horiz-shift: when the visible vertical area is
not set to full, this option specifies the screen's area that
will be visible. Values higher than 0 will cause showing more
of the bottom part of the screen, while values lower than 0 will
cause showing more of the top part. The default is 0 (no
shift).
-stretch none|integral|full|number
Choose method of stretching the image to fit the screen/window
area:
none The image won't be stretched at all.
integral
The default. The image will fit the screen/window but
will be stretched only by an integral multiplier. This
setting allows for nice output when using scanlines in
low screen resolutions.
full The screen will fit the entire screen/window area. This
setting looks best in high screen resolutions.
number A custom multiplier (floating point number) can be also
provided to precisely set the amount of stretching.
-fit-screen width|height
When -stretch is set to integral or full, this parameter
controls how the stretching is performed with relation to
window/screen size:
width Fits the image's width while allowing it to be cropped
vertically.
height Fits the image's height while allowing it to be cropped
horizontally.
both The default. Fit both the image's width and height,
avoiding cropping.
-image-aspect none|square-pixels|real
Choose how the image's aspect ratio should be maintained when
stretching:
none Causes the image to be stretched without restriction to
fit the screen/window area fully.
square-pixels
The default. Causes the image to be stretched by the
same amount horizontally and vertically, maintaining
square pixels. In low screen resolutions this setting
may produce the nicest result.
real Recreates the aspect ratio of a real TV display (pixels
are not square), but only if the -host-aspect-ratio
option is set correctly.
-host-aspect-ratio auto|x:y
Set the aspect ratio of the host monitor on which the emulator's
display is placed. Allowed values are auto for autodetection,
or ratios like 4:3, 16:9, 1.25:1 ... This value is used to
properly maintain image's aspect ratio when having -image-aspect
set to real. The default value is auto. Note that host aspect
ratio detection works as expected only if the desktop resolution
matches aspect ratio of the display device (in other words,
display pixels are square). If, for example, desktop resolution
is 800x600 on a 16:9 monitor, autodetection will fail and host
aspect ratio will have to be set manually, by measuring physical
width and height of the monitor and setting the parameter to
width:height.
-80column
Shows output of an 80 column hardware, when it is available (the
default). This parameter has effect only if an 80 column
hardware is activated, using one of the parameters -af80,
-proto80 or -af80.
-no-80column
Deactivates showing output of an 80 column hardware.
-nojoystick
Do not initialize SDL joysticks
-joy0 path-to-device
Define path to device used in LPTjoy 0. Available on linux-ia32
only.
-joy1 path-to-device
Define path to device used in LPTjoy 1. Available on linux-ia32
only.
-ntsc-filter-preset composite|svideo|rgb|monochrome
Use one of predefined NTSC filter adjustments.
-ntsc-sharpness n
Set sharpness of the NTSC filter.
-ntsc-resolution n
Set resolution of the NTSC filter.
-ntsc-artifacts n
Set artifacts of the NTSC filter.
-ntsc-fringing n
Set fringing of the NTSC filter.
-ntsc-bleed n
Set bleed of the NTSC filter.
-ntsc-burstphase n
Set burst phase of the NTSC filter. This changes colors of
artifacts. The best values are 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5.
-scanlines n
Set visibility of scanlines (0..100). Scanlines are only
visible when the screen's or window's vertical size is at least
480 (more precisely, at least twice the number of scanlines
given in -vert-area).
-scanlinesint
Enable scanlines interpolation (looks nicer).
-no-scanlinesint
Disable scanlines interpolation (in software modes may give
better performance).
-video-accel
Use OpenGL hardware acceleration for displaying and stretching
of the emulator's display. Using OpenGL improves performance.
-no-video-accel
Don't use OpenGL hardware acceleration (the default).
-pixel-format bgr16|rgb16|bgra32|argb32
Choose format of texture data when OpenGL acceleration is
enabled. Depending on the type of the graphics hardware, either
of the values might give the best performance. Note that with
pixel format set to bgr16 or rgb16, emulation of colors is
slightly less accurate.
-pbo Use Pixel Buffer Objects when OpenGL acceleration is enabled
(the default). PBOs are available on newer graphics hardware
and when used, substantially improve emulator's performance.
However in rare cases (some Intel on-board chips) using PBOs may
actually descrease perfromance.
-no-pbo
Don't use Pixel Buffer Objects when OpenGL acceleration is used.
-bilinear-filter
Enable bilinear filtering of the screen in OpenGL modes.
-no-bilinear-filter
Disable bilinear filtering in OpenGL modes (the default).
-opengl-lib path
Provide a custom OpenGL shared library. If not given, Atari800
will use a default system-specific library (typically
opengl32.dll or libGL.so).
-proto80
Emulate a prototype 80 column board for the 1090
-xep80 Emulate the XEP80
-xep80port n
Use XEP80 on joystick port n
-af80 Emulate the Austin Franklin 80 column daughterboard for Atari
800.

Apart from standard joysticks (handled by the SDL) up to two keyboard
joysticks are supported. The keys used for joystick directions and the
trigger can be freely defined in the config UI (Controller Config ->
Define layout). Keyboard joystick emulation can be enabled/disabled in
the Controller Config. By default, joy 0 is enabled and joy 1 is
disabled (to not steal normal AWDS keys in the emulator).

Alt Atari key (either Alt key will work)
Joystick 0 is operated by the mouse position relative to the center of
the screen. The mouse button acts as the trigger. On Linux, standard
joysticks are also supported.
