Emulating a 640x480 game in a window on a 125-150dpi screen can be just too small. And running the game in fullscreen is too blurry. A feature that will make the window double sized would be nice and thereby keeping the crisp graphics.
BTW: GO DOSBOX!!!!

I think this is already done.
Look at the scaler=XXX options in DOSBox configuration file (dosbox.conf).

He is talking about using software scaler in a high resolution.
Try my build with a parameter -forcescaler.
Or use windowresolution. Works for me.

Yep, or for "crispy fullscreen" playing with output= and fullresolution= and so on.
Thanks fellas. I got it working with 'output=openglnb'. Using 'opengl' and 'ddraw' utilizes anti-aliasing. Using 'overlay' gives an odd blur.
I think it uses Bilinear Filtering rather than antialiasing, hence the blurry output.

You could also force it to use Aniso Filtering in your VGA driver's control panel, thereby elminating that wierd blur in the overlay.
dh4rm4 that worked for me. Switching to openglnb made it not blurry in windowed mode but was making my sound skip. Followed your suggestion. Manually set anti-alliasing and anistropic filtering on my video card and now I can run dosbox at 1024x768 windowed mode , with no blur and no sound skipping.
Please please please include this in the FAQ. I spent hours with this problem.
