+This command selects the instruction set to use when disassembling the program via the
+@code{disassemble} or @code{x/i} commands. It is useful for architectures that
+have more than one native instruction set.
+
+Currently it is only defined for the Intel x86 family. You can set @var{instruction-set}
+to either @code{i386} or @code{i8086}. The default is @code{i386}.
