DESCRIPTION
     The  m6502  screensaver  emulates a 6502 microprocessor. The family of 6502
     chips were used throughout the 70's and 80's in machines such as the  Atari
     2600,  Commodore  PET,  VIC20  and C64, Apple ][, and the NES. Some example
     programs are included and it can also read in an assembly file as input.

OPTIONS
     m6502 accepts the following options:

     --window
	     Draw on a newly-created window.  This is the default.

     --root  Draw on the root window.

     --window-id number
	     Draw on the specified window.

     --mono  If on a color display, pretend we're on a monochrome display.

     --install
	     Install a private colormap for the window.

     --visual visual
	     Specify which visual to use.  Legal values are the name of a visual
	     class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual.

     --file filename
	     Lets you load an assembly file.

     --displaytime seconds
	     Lets you set the number of seconds to display each program. The de-
	     fault is 60.
