+ The _\bb_\bs_\bo_\bd program is the finest in personal computer emula-
+ tion.
+
+ _\bb_\bs_\bo_\bd steps through a set of screens, each one a recreation
+ of a different failure mode of an operating system. Sys-
+ tems depicted include Microsoft's Windows 95 and Windows
+ NT, Commodore-Amiga's AmigaDOS 1.3, SPARC Linux, SCO UNIX,
+ the Apple Macintosh (both the MacsBug debugger and the
+ rarer "Sad Mac"), and the Atari ST.

+ _\bb_\bs_\bo_\bd accepts the following options:
+
+ -\b-w\bwi\bin\bnd\bdo\bow\bw Draw on a newly-created window. This is the
+ default.
+
+ -\b-r\bro\boo\bot\bt Draw on the root window.
+
+ -\b-m\bmo\bon\bno\bo If on a color display, pretend we're on a
+ monochrome display.
+
+ -\b-i\bin\bns\bst\bta\bal\bll\bl
+ Install a private colormap for the window.
+
+ -\b-v\bvi\bis\bsu\bua\bal\bl _\bv_\bi_\bs_\bu_\ba_\bl
+ 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.
+
+ -\b-d\bde\bel\bla\bay\by _\bd_\be_\bl_\ba_\by
+ The delay between displaying one crash and
+ another.
+
+E\bEN\bNV\bVI\bIR\bRO\bON\bNM\bME\bEN\bNT\bT
+ D\bDI\bIS\bSP\bPL\bLA\bAY\bY to get the default host and display number.
+
+ X\bXE\bEN\bNV\bVI\bIR\bRO\bON\bNM\bME\bEN\bNT\bT
+ to get the name of a resource file that overrides
+ the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MAN-
+ AGER property.

+ Notable X resources supported include the following, which
+ control which hacks are displayed and which aren't.

+ d\bdo\boA\bAt\bta\bar\bri\bi, and d\bdo\boS\bSp\bpa\bar\brc\bcL\bLi\bin\bnu\bux\bx. Each of these is a Boolean
+ resource, they all default to true, except for doSpar-
+ cLinux and doAtari, which are turned off by default,
+ because they're really not all that interesting looking
+ unless you're a fan of those systems. There aren't com-
+ mand-line options for these, so to change them, you'll
+ need to add entries to your .Xdefaults file, or use the
+ -xrm option. For example, to tell bsod not to show the NT
+ crash:
+
+ bsod -xrm '*doNT: false'

+ Unlike the systems that the images are borrowed from, _\bb_\bs_\bo_\bd
+ does not require a reboot after running.
+
+ _\bb_\bs_\bo_\bd should also emulate more systems, but systems with
+ interesting crash graphics are not as common as one might
+ hope.
+
+ One I'd really like to see is a Unix system getting a ker-
+ nel panic, rebooting, and running f\bfs\bsc\bck\bk(8).
