From the Command LineΒΆ

Included with VICE is a command line entry which runs simple simulations from a terminal. This feature allows the parameters of a onezone model to be specified as command-line arguments; run vice --help from a terminal after installing VICE (from any directory except the source tree). While these command-line capabilities are useful for their ease, VICE is severaly limited in capability when ran from the command-line in comparison to when ran from the Python interpreter.

VICE also includes a command-line entry for automatically accessing the documentation. Simply run vice --docs from any directory except the source tree, and the documentation will be opened by the default web browser.
