Hey guys

Just a quick silly question. I'm using DOSBox to run an old midi sequencer and I'm using the hercules machine emulation. I love running it in amber but it's really annoying to have to cycle through the colors with F11 every time I start DOSBox.

Is there any way to set DOSBox to automatically change the color to amber at startup?

I'm using an intel Mac Pro 2 x 2.66GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon, 1GB 667 DDR2 RAM running OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger).

Thanks a bunch!

JvA

you would have to change the sourcecode and recompile.

maybe if it is a popular request. Currently I don't want to waste configfile space for it. nor make other options more complicated.

fair enough, I'll have a look thru the source code and see if I can't work it out.

Thanks for your help and quick replies!
