# quickemu
> Build and manage highly optimised desktop virtual machines quickly.
> See also: `quickget`, for preparing VM configurations.
> More information: <https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu>.
- Create and run a virtual machine from a configuration file:
`quickemu --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Do not commit any changes to disk/snapshot but write any changes to temporary files:
`quickemu --status-quo --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Start the virtual machine in full-screen mode (<Ctrl> + <Alt> + f to exit) and select the display backend (`sdl` by default):
`quickemu --fullscreen --display {{sdl|gtk|spice|spice-app|none}} --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Select a virtual audio device to emulate and create a desktop shortcut:
`quickemu --sound-card {{intel-hda|ac97|es1370|sb16|none}} --shortcut --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Create a snapshot:
`quickemu --snapshot create {{tag}} --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Restore a snapshot:
`quickemu --snapshot apply {{tag}} --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
- Delete a snapshot:
`quickemu --snapshot delete {{tag}} --vm {{path/to/file.conf}}`
