+Use the executable @file{qemu-system-avr} to emulates a AVR 8 bit based
machine having one for the following cores: avr1, avr2, avr25, avr3, avr31,
avr35, avr4, avr5, avr51, avr6, avrtiny, xmega2, xmega3, xmega4, xmega5, xmega6
and xmega7.

+As for now it does not support any real MCUs. However, it does support a
"sample" board for educational and testing purposes. This "sample" board hosts
USART & 16 bit timer devices and it's enought to run FreeRTOS based applicaton
(like this
@url{https://github.com/seharris/qemu-avr-tests/blob/master/free-rtos/Demo/AVR_ATMega2560_GCC/demo.elf,,demo})

+Following are examples of possible usages, assuming program.elf is compiled
for AVR cpu
+@itemize
+
+@item Continious non interrupted execution
+@example
+qemu-system-avr -kernel program.elf
+@end example

+@item Continious non interrupted execution with serial output into telnet
window
+@example
+qemu-system-avr -kernel program.elf -serial tcp::5678,server,nowait -nographic
