leileilol, I don't know but it is something that when I double click the icon, the game will launch dosbox and the game right away without me having to do all this mounting stuff. I know it is possible as it has been done before so yeah. Maybe you know how I can this.

alright, what if you take a look at the whole 2 min. tutorial I took that screen from

(run the .htm file to view)
in the last third the tips are displayed to edit autoexec in conf.

It worked!!!! Now I have another question. I may have multiple games and I don't want to have to keep changing that when I want a new game so is there a way so that if you click on one file, it will open up dosbox and do commands but if click on another file, it will open up dosbox and do other commands.

I spend a lot of time on this and I had to create an account to find out how to get it so it launches automatically and that is solved but I don't know how to get it so that I can have multiple ones.

look at the readme where it details the command line options for dosbox, especially how to handle configuration files....

I looked there and it did not help. Is there some kind of program that can launch programs and have them do funtions and have this saved? That would be good to have it possible to have multiple quick launches.
