Capturing sound without using Ctrl-F6?

Hi guys,
does it exist a Dosbox command to start capturing a wav file without using the special key Ctrl-F6 or another remapped special key? Or it is the only way to start/stop grabbing?
I want to automate capturing multiple audio files: I thought to use old keystroke emulation programs (like 'stuffit') but in Dosbox they work only for the simple characters (Ctrl-f6 doesn't work - interrupt problem or similar?); also the character is printed at the prompt but not recognized as pressed.
Can you help me?
Thanks, ciao

the reason why you can not bind to ctrlf6 is as that level of keyboard input is at a much higher level and outside of the emulated machine.

Stuff like stuff it will put it in the keyboard buffer(in the virtual machine)

not in the keyboard buffer of the emulater.

The only way possible is to code in dosbox as special command.

Good luck.
