Hi,
In the default EGA setup, when dosbox starts up, it doesn't go to a default EGA mode. I wonder how to change that, I'd like to get to that mode and have the "fat" and "jagged" font right away. Any ideas?
Thanks
Jack

Please use DOS's MODE command.
Type:

C:\mode 40

then you will get what you want 😉
