+Using brlemu with Qemu
+----------------------
+You can also use it together with "qemu" on one physical machine - in that
+case you start qemu with all your usual options, and add "-serial pty" to
+them. Qemu will show a line "char device redirected to /dev/pts/11". That's
+the device you need to feed to brlemu. Start it like that:
+
+   brlemu /dev/pts/11 --fake
+
+replacing /dev/pts/11 with what you got from Qemu. Voila - there you go.
