Open up a terminal
cd to the directory with the games
and run dosbox ./
Heres an example, in this case I am playing Commander Keen
[rob@Oneniisama rob]$
[rob@Oneniisama rob]$ cd /Oneniisama/Keen/
[rob@Oneniisama Keen]$
[rob@Oneniisama Keen]$ dosbox ./
This opens up the dosbox with the current folder as the root directory for dosbox.
No need to switch folders in dosbox now 😀
then in the dosbox window
It will say that it mounted C as the local directory and will have a prompt flashing with C
Doing a dir /w *.exe shows me all the exe files in that folder. I see my Keen1.exe file, and i simple type
Keen1.exe
then the game opens up.
Hopefully someone will made this a sticky message and move this into the tutorial section. This makes it much easier to use dosbox.
