When the disk is +booted on the Atari, the BASIC program is loaded into memory and run. +.sp +There is no DOS on the disk; the BASIC program won\(aqt be able to use +the D: devices. +.sp +The bootloader will enable BASIC if possible (600XL, 800XL, all +XEs). Otherwise (400/800/1200XL), the Atari BASIC cartridge must be +inserted. The bootloader doesn\(aqt work with other BASICs like BASIC XL, +TurboBASIC, etc. +.SH OPTIONS +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \fB\-atr\fP \fB\-xfd\fP \fB\-scp\fP \fB\-dcm\fP \fB\-di\fP +Set the output image type.
