+.TH SNES9X-GTK 6 "22 OCT 2009" "SlackBuilds.org Project" "Slackware Linux"
+.SH NAME
+snes9x-gtk \- Super Nintendo Entertainment System emulator
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B snes9x\-gtk
+[\-filter \fItype\fR]
+[\-mutesound]
+[\fIrom\-file]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Snes9x is a portable, freeware Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES)
+emulator. It basically allows you to play most games designed for the SNES
+and Super Famicom Nintendo game systems on your PC or Workstation; they
+include some real gems that were only ever released in Japan.
+.PP
+.B snes9x\-gtk
+is an unofficial port of Snes9x with a GTK+ graphical frontend.
+.PP
+With no ROM file argument, snes9x\-gtk will start its graphical user interface.
+When a ROM file is named on the command line, snes9x\-gtk will start
+emulation immediately.
+.PP
+Unlike the original snes9x, snes9x\-gtk doesn't extensively use command\-line
+options to affect its behaviour. Instead, use the GUI and/or keyboard
+shortcuts from within the emulator.
+.SS OPTIONS
+.TP
+\fB\-filter\fR \fItype\fR
+Use a filter to scale the video. Filter types are:
+.br
+.nh
+.I none
+.I supereagle
+.I 2xsai
+.I super2xsai
+.I hq2x
+.I hq3x
+.I hq4x
+.I epx
+.I ntsc
+.hy
+.PP
+The \-filter option does the same thing as the GUI's "Apply Scaling Filter"
+selection (under Preferences / Display).
+.TP
+.B \-mutesound
+Disable audio output. The sound CPU is still emulated. Note that this
+option will enable the "mute sound?" checkbox in the Preferences user
+interface, whose value will be saved across sessions (you must use the GUI to
+unmute the audio).
+.SH FILES
+.B ~/.snes9x/snes9x.xml
+.br
+Configuration file. Not intended to be edited directly; stores the settings
+made in the GUI. To return all settings to their defaults, remove this file.
+.PP
+.B ~/.snes9x/snapshots/*
+.br
+Saved states, named after ROM filenames.
+.PP
+.B ~/.snes9x/*.png
+.br
+Screenshots, named after ROM filenames.
