The openMSX documentation is split into a number of separate documents, |
| 17 |
each with their own purpose and intended audience. |

<dt class="toc"><a class="external" href="commands.html">Console Command Reference</a></dt> |
| 50 |
<dd> |
| 51 |
An overview of all commands and settings that can be used from the openMSX |
| 52 |
built in console. Check this if you want to know exactly how to control |
| 53 |
openMSX. If you can't find a feature in the GUI, it may not mean it's not there |
| 54 |
at all: perhaps we didn't have the GUI support it yet and is only be available |
| 55 |
via the console. |

<dt class="toc"><a class="external" href="diskmanipulator.html">Using Diskmanipulator</a></dt> |
| 59 |
<dd> |
| 60 |
The <code>diskmanipulator</code> command is so powerful that we made a separate |
| 61 |
manual for it. Use it to create (hard)disk images, import files to them, export |
| 62 |
files from them, etc. However, using it via the GUI is probably easier, you can find it under <span |
| 63 |
class="menu-reference">Main menu bar → Tools → Disk Manipulator ...</span>. |

<dd> |
| 68 |
This is a guide for application developers who want to control openMSX from |
| 69 |
their own programs. Very useful if you're planning to make a launcher, GUI, |
| 70 |
debugger or another kind of external program that needs to control openMSX. |
