7.5.4.2 VIC20 memory configuration command-line options

-memory <config>

Specify memory configuration. It must be a comma-separated list of options, each of which can be one the following:

  • none (no extension);
  • all (all blocks);
  • 3k (3KiB space in block 0);
  • 8k (first 8KiB extension block);
  • 16k (first and second 8KiB extension blocks);
  • 24k (first, second and 3rd extension blocks);
  • 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 (memory in respective blocks);
  • 04, 20, 40, 60, A0 (memory at respective address.

For example,

xvic -memory none

gives an unexpanded VIC20. While

xvic -memory 60,a0

or

xvic -memory 3,5

enables memory in blocks 3 and 5, which is the usual configuration for 16KiB ROM modules.
