Jeff Parsons 12b760f912 Changed the last embedPC() parameter from sStateFile to sParms, although for backward compatibility, if sParms is not a JSON object definition (ie, beginning with a brace), it continues to be treated as a state filename. 
This change allows us to pass any number of additional properties to embedPC(), which in turn can override properties contained in the XML file; the only property overrides currently supported are 'state' (which overrides any 'state' property set in the XML's <computer> element) and 'automount' (which overrides any 'automount' property set in the XML's <fdc> element).  The goal is to make it easier to reuse XML machine definitions, by allowing commonly altered component attributes to be overridden.

PCjs Disk Image Formats

PCjs works best with disk images in a JSON format, to save conversion time, so that's the only disk image format you'll find on the PCjs website.

To convert any of our JSON disk images back into an IMG file, you can use the DiskDump API with the format parameter set to img instead of json. For example:

http://localhost:8088/api/v1/dump?disk=/disks/pc/dos/ibm/2.00/PCDOS200-DISK1.json&format=img

In fact, when browsing the disk archives, the PCjs web server automatically provides "onclick" handlers for links to JSON-encoded disk images, which will invoke the API for you.

See Creating PCjs-Compatible Disk Images in the PCjs Documentation for more information about supported disks and formats.
