Subject: [PATCH] qemu-options.hx: Replace deprecated -M example
Date: Tue,  2 Dec 2025 00:57:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251202005740.299524-1-dave@treblig.org> (raw)

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dave@treblig.org>

The -M option was deprecated by -machine in 2011 by 80f52a669
and isn't actually documented in the manpage, but is still used in
one of the examples.  Replace it by -machine.
-M still gets used all over the place in other docs, and I'm
not sure I realised it was deprecated until Julian pointed out it
wasn't actually documented.
