Since this command is already implemented in DOSBox SVN-lfn, if only DOSBox developers want to add it to the official build... I wouldn't expect that. No or next no games require LFN. I was only talking about the FOR command in this version though. Even though this build has built-in LFN support ( …

I am not currently aware of a DOSBox version that will access network shares directly. However, vDosPlus does support for this. For example, you can do either of the following in vDosPlus: DIR \\SERVER1\FILES Or: USE E: \\SERVER1\FILES DIR E: The latter approach is preferred for DOS programs that do …

And for your information, recent versions of DOSBox SVN-lfn (like vDosPlus's internal shell) has a built-in FOR command. An example: for %f in (*.iso *.cue) do set cdlist=%cdlist% %f vDosPlus by default uses the 4DOS 8.00 shell, so advanced options of the FOR command like /F are natively supported …

Hey, Wengier! Does vDosPlus add any build dependencies over DosBox which are WIndows specific? I'm curious if a build could be developed for other platforms, time depending. Hi gdjacobs, Like vDos, vDosPlus is a DOS emulator for Windows, so yes it has Windows-specific functions and will not …

QBASIC will *not* function properly in vDos because vDos lacks keyboard INT9/IRQ1 support. You are recommended to try vDosPlus ( vDosPlus.org ) instead. vDosPlus has *all* features of vDos plus many many more. P.S. I am the maintainer of both DOSBox SVN-lfn and vDosPlus. The printing support in …

I have updated the DOSBox SVN-lfn to match the latest DOSBox SVN version 4052 in the latest build, which should include the fix linked from the above post, and also new commands FOR and PROMPT are added to the build. The download links for the latest builds remain the same.

Good on you for making something up-to-date and robustly supported (or so it seems). Does this run Clipper apps? There are still occasionally people passing through here looking to run Clipper apps. Also, I suppose there's still no graphics support (e.g. WordPerfect 6 in graphics mode) ? Hi Jorpho, …

vDosPlus is general-purpose non-gaming DOS emulator for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, based on vDos and DOSBox. Unlike the official version of DOSBox, which is specifically designed for DOS gaming, vDosPlus is designed for running normal DOS applications. Compared with vDos, while vDosPlus has all …

Updated for DOSBox SVN 4006. Also added the APM power down feature to shut down DOSBox SVN-lfn and (for Windows) DOS APIs that communicate with the Windows clipboard directly (e.g. 4DOS's clipboard feature via the CLIP: device name will work). The source code changes have been attached.

I have updated the binary and source code to match the latest SVN version r4006. Also, the PDCurses library is no longer required for the mouse copy/paste feature in macOS (OS X) if you set NOPDCLIP=1 in config.txt, similar to when you build it in Windows. This makes it easier to build the DOSBox …
