Synopsis
higan [--fullscreen] [PATH]
Description
When launched with --fullscreen,
higan will automatically enter full-screen mode
when it starts.
This is not much use unless you also specify PATH,
because you won't be able to load a game
until you exit full-screen mode
by pressing the "Toggle Fullscreen"
hotkey.
When PATH is the path to an existing
game folder
for any supported console,
that game will be loaded when higan starts.
When PATH is the path to a ROM file
for any supported console,
it will be imported into a game folder in
the Game Library,
and then loaded from there when higan starts.
When loading a game from the Game Library
via higan's GUI,
you can force higan to emulate a particular regional variant
of the relevant console by
choosing a region code from the drop-down list
in the lower-right of the filesystem browser.
To achieve the same effect from the command-line,
PATH should be set to the region code used in the GUI,
followed by a vertical bar (|),
followed by actual filesystem path
to the game folder or ROM file to load.
Examples
Play a previously-imported copy of Super Mario World in full-screen (assuming Linux defaults):
higan --fullscreen ~/Emulation/"Super Famicom"/"Super Mario World.sfc"
Play a previously-imported copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, forcing higan to emulate a Japanese Mega Drive:
higan "NTSC-J|$HOME/Emulation/Mega Drive/Sonic the Hedgehog 3.md"
