First of all we don't help with illegal downloads, second, ~/library is hidden in OS X 10.7 and later (in finder menu click on go while holding down ALT/options) - well known fact. And then just make sure you mount the folder you have your exe in. No actual need for the config. If it still doesn't …

so, what about the installers for other OS? Right now the OS X stuff comes in a simple disk image that is much easier to open than the Windows installers....

Great idea, a bit cumbersome when SDL2 progresses but physical CDRom support is hard to let go 😉

No, there is no problem. The dir command only lists the files in the current directory. "dir ryssa" is not supposed to work. You need to do cd ryssa ryssa.exe

Change directory. I presume you want to do that and either list the files there or start the game.

Add to that: when an application asks for share you really really shouldn't use Dosbox even though fakeshare fakes it. But the functionality is not there.
