Hi, all.

Times are changing, and perhaps some words change their significance or are
less in use.

What do you think of introducing a new option in our command line "-core",
that would be (code-wise) a sinomym to "-cpu" (that becomes almost archaic)?

Yours,
Aleksandar

The QEMU command line is too overcrowded already, so let's please not
add redundant synonyms here. But if you think that -cpu is not clear
enough, I suggest you send some patches to improve the documentation
of that parameter instead.

 Cheers,
  Thomas
