[PATCH v2 3/3] softmmu/vl: Deprecate the -sdl and -curses option |
Date: |
Wed, 25 Aug 2021 11:20:23 +0200 |
It's not that much complicated to type "-display sdl" or "-display curses",
so we should not clutter our main option name space with such simple
wrapper options and rather present the users with a concise interface
instead. Thus let's deprecate the "-sdl" and "-curses" wrapper options now.
