 vmd is an Emacs package to interact with [OpenBSD' vmd][vmd].
 
 
+### vterm integration
+
+To use vterm (or any other packages really) to handle a shell for the
+console, `vmd-console-function` must point to a function that accepts
+two parameters, name and cmd, and execute cmd (a list of strings) in
+your preferred terminal.  By default, `ansi-term` (bundled with Emacs)
+is used, so it's easy to switch to vterm:
+
+```elisp
+(defun my/vmd-vterm (name cmd)
+  (let ((vterm-shell (mapconcat #'shell-quote-argument cmd " "))
+        (vterm-buffer-name (concat "*" name "*")))
+    (vterm)))
+(setq vmd-console-function #'my/vmd-vterm)
+```
