I tried to make my own build of dosbox (for windows) and add this capability by myself however i have been most unsuccesful in compiling the source code. I have tried this with a few compilers with no success. I have managed to get rid of all the compilation errors except the last one. The compiler does not seem to be able to find a "main" function. I tried compiling this with a windows console application project with no luck.
i can create my own main function (if this is needed) but i dont know what in the source code should be called on by this function. can someone help me with this?

Thanks, Tom

please don't use caps.
and have sdl properly installed.
the main error is caused by a bad sdl install.

I tried compiling with the instruction on the page. I am using the DLL's from the DOSBOX dsitribution but i am having no luck with setting the path variable to where i put the DLLs.
How do i do that? I think i must be missing somthing. I tried the normal linux way but it seems to be ignoring me.

thanks again
