Is there any chance of the 'mode' command being implemented in DOSBox? While it servers serveral options/functions under DOS, I'm specifically concerned with:
Syntax:
MODE n
MODE [n],m[,T]
Options:
n - should be one of the following expressions:
40 - 40 characters per line
80 - 80 characters per line
BW40 - 40 characters per line, black and white (color display adapter)
BW80 - 80 characters per line, black and white (color display adapter)
CO40 - 40 characters per line, color (color display adapter)
CO80 - 80 characters per line, color (color display adapter)
MONO - monochrome display adapter
m - R or L (shifts display right or left)
T - Displays a test pattern used to align the display.
Questprobe - The Hulk uses the command Mode CO40 to throw the game into graphics mode. The command is not recognized by DOSBox, and the game automatically plays in the CO80 mode, text only.

P.S. Just as an FYI, there appears to be a good explanation of the MODE command here:

Although most of you probably know what is contained on that page, and then some, already 😀
