+jg-jollycv (ColecoVision emulation core for Jolly Good Emulation)
+
+JollyCV is a highly accurate emulator for the ColecoVision, including
+support for the Super Game Module.
+
+JollyCV was the first emulator written specifically for The Jolly
+Good API. It is designed to document the ColecoVision for educational
+purposes through verbose comments, and high quality emulation. The
+ColecoVision is the perfect console to use to demonstrate how computer
+systems and emulators function because it is very simple and uses
+generic, off-the-shelf chips with widely available datasheets.
+
+Filenames supported: .col .rom
+To run files with other extensions: jollygood -c jollycv <filename>
+
+By default, no controls are mapped. The first time you run a game,
+press Shift-1 to configure the first controller.
+
+You'll need the ColecoVision BIOS ROM image (coleco.rom),
+available on the standard ROM dump sites on the Web, or in the
+clksignal-roms build from SlackBuilds.org. Copy coleco.rom to
+"~/.local/share/jollygood/bios/coleco.rom". There are several variant
+ROM images, all 8192 bytes in size. The most common one has an md5sum
+of 2c66f5911e5b42b8ebe113403548eee7.
