Hello

I've got MAC OS X and when starting DOSbox from Finder it doesn't seem to make use of my "dosbox.conf" configuration file.
I figured out that when starting DOSbox from Terminal the dosbox.conf file has to be placed in the current working directory, but in Finder it doesn't seem to work.

Where should i put my "dosbox.conf" file under OS X so that DOSbox makes use of it when it is started with Finder?

Is there a way to write a batch file in order to start dosbox with custom parameters just from finder by doubleclick?

greetings from germany
Nils

See the bottom of the Mac OSX section here, and the table on this page describing the different locations that DOSBox looks for its configuration file.
