I downloaded dosbox and it works great. However, I'm using a macbook pro and whenever i come to a point in games where i have to hit the "esc" key, my esc key does not work. Is this a macbook thing that the esc key is different? Is there anything I can do so that I can click the esc key? And finally, is it just my computer that's messed up? Thanks.

Does it work in other games? Try the mapper, there you can see if
the ESC on your keyboard produces something, and if it doesn't
remap the emulated ESC key.
