+=head1 NAME
+
+steem - the Atari STE emulator for Linux/X11
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+steem [options] [disk_image_a [disk_image_b]] [cartridge] [tos_image]
+
+steem [options] [state_file]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Steem is a Freeware Atari ST/STE emulator for Windows and Linux.
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=head2 Image Files
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<[disk_image_a], [disk_image_b]>
+
+Optional disk images to be used for the ST's A: and B: drives. File types supported are
+ST/MSA/DIM/STT/ZIP/RAR. If 2 disks are specified, the first will be ST drive A: and the second drive B:.
+
+=item B<[cartridge]>
+
+Optional name of a cartridge image (.STC) to be loaded.
+
+=item B<[state_file]>
+
+state file: previously saved state file (.STS) to load. If none is specified, Steem will
+load "auto.sts" provided the relevant option is checked in the Options dialog.
+
+=item B<[tos_image]>
+
+TOS image file to use. By default, this is set in steem.ini and does not need setting on the
+command line. For most games and applications, the TOS image should be the UK v1.02 image
+(tos102.img).
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Switches
+
+Options are case-independent and can be prefixed by -, --, / or nothing.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<NOSHM>
+
+disable use of Shared Memory.
+
+=item B<NOSOUND>
+
+no sound output.
+
+=item B<SOF=<n>>
+
+set sound output frequency to <n> Hz.
+
+=item B<PABUFSIZE=<n>>
+
+set PortAudio buffer size to <n> samples.
+
+=item B<FONT=<string>>
+
+use a different font.
+
+=item B<HELP>
+
+print help message and quit.
+
+=item B<INI=<file>>
+
+use <file> instead of steem.ini to initialise options.
+
+=item B<TRANS=<file>>
+
+use <file> instead of searching for Translate.txt or Translate_*.txt to translate the GUI
+text.
+
+=back
+
+All of these options (except INI= and TRANS=) can be changed from the GUI once steem is running. It
+is easiest just to run steem and play with the GUI.
