Hi,

How does DOSBox handle TSR's? Is it supported? For example: after being loaded, a "trainer" program loads the game .exe. The trainer program should stay in memory so that it can manipulate variables in the game's memory space. Is this also possible in DOSBox? Both the trainer and the game are written for DOS.

Cheers,

hmm yes tsr loading is supported, should normally work i think, although there might some more advanced trainers that used 386 features that might not be supported but you'll probably notice that by a nice crash or some vague error message.
