30 Lock-On Support
31 ---------------
32
33 This version of BlastEm has some preliminary support for Sonic & Knuckles lock
34 on technology. This is only available from the command line at the moment. To
35 use it specify the Sonic & Knuckles ROM as the primary ROM and specify the ROM
36 to be locked on using the -o option. As an example:
37
38 ./blastem ~/romz/sonic_and_knuckles.bin -o ~/romz/sonic3.bin

40 Please note that Sonic 2 lock-on does not work at this time. Additionally the
41 save RAM added by Sonic 3 won't work either.
