FYI ... DOSBOX just released 0.73 with major improvements - including some new video card & mode emulation. That also means there's been some changes to the conf file key=values. You'll want to check the ChangeLog, FAQ Wiki and so forth.

http://sf.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=685514&group_id=52551 - ChangeLog
http://dosbox.cvs.sourceforge.net/dosbox/dosbox/README?view=markup - ReadMe
http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/Dosbox.conf - New Settings

For example, "machine=vga" was the old default. The new default is "machine=svga_s3".

Enjoy the classics. Mark S.

Who works on this? It would be great to have. Can I just drop in the new dosbox and dosbox.conf or should I wait for Dosbox Portable .73?

this should have been poste

this should have been posted in the requests thread.

Done.

Now posted in requests thread.

No

Neither of these should have been posted at all. We don't appreciate "nag" threads, and that's what these are. We know about it. It'll come when it's ready.

My bad.

I deleted other thread.

It's Coming

It's coming, Mark. We've just had a bit of a rough week between the RackSpace outage and the SourceForge.net outage. Fear not!

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Reminder

John, please don't forget this feature request:
