"C:\Documents and Settings\SSSS\Local Settings\Application Data\DOSBox\dosbox-0.74.conf"
why did you have to move the dosbox config file to this directory? my batch files for dosbox version 0.72 can not locate the 0.74's config file.
why do you have to make all dos programs use 1 dosbox config file?
I can only run my dos batch files under C:\dosbox-0.74> only, why did you have to make me put all the dos batch files and mix them with dosbox0.74 programs in order to run them or it only takes the dosbox default value settings.
I need multiple dosbox settings for multiple dos programs, this was perfect under dosbox ver 0.72, as you know i can run the dosbox 0.72 from where the dos program is or dos batches are and if so, it takes the dosbox conf setting from that directory.
it was maybe 5 years ago, i couldnt run ver 0.74. 0.72 patch setting was incompatible with 0.74 and i didnt have time to investigate why (even if i did, i had about change 100 batch files or so, i simply didnt have the time), so i went back to scummvm v1.4, but new scummvm 1.7 is not acceptible anymore,
scummvm v1.7 path setting was meant for scummvm developers and not the scummvm users, scummvm uses the same way as dosbox ver 0.74 that is 1 setting for all multiple versions of scummvm . And so i am trying to move back to dosbox
I need an option to select to locate dosbox-0.74.conf as it if it was ver 0.72.
please let me group my own dos programs that use certain dosbox conf settings, i can do this if i make several directories that contain similar programs
please allow multiple dosbox settings for mulpitple dos programs or dos batch files like dosbox ver 0.72
please make dosbox like old DOS way and batch file friendly.
once new dosbox 0.74 uses fixed path like "C:\Documents and Settings\SSSS\Local Settings\Application Data\DOSBox\dosbox-0.74.conf" this,
dosbox 0.74 is not a DOS way anymore., it is a windows way.
sincerely
