When you run a DOS text program in Windows you can set the Font to be whatever Windows provides (TrueType). This is a big help in the Quckbasic 50 column mode (qbx /h). The font in Dosbox in unreadable and you can't just use TrueType fonts in DOS (not that I have figured out yet). Windows doesn't obey the Video mode and just emulates the text its way.
I have messed with vmode, but it doesn't work with this app, nor does it do what Windows will. Instead of displaying the font in DOS, Windows reads the DOS character and displays it in Windows. It seams to me this would be the easiest way for Dosbox to emulate the text modes anyway. Maybe it already does this and we just have to change the font in the code? Hopefully?
Thanks...
