Or does it only run on the console box?

It should work in a slow way 😀

If your output window isn't opengl, it will work sure. As mentioned it will be pretty slow on updates though.

Since it runs on just about any platform you can think of, why would you want to do this?

Others have asked, maybe tried, but never reported back:

using dosbox under linux only for command line without X
dosbox text mode only over ssh

It works fine here, running dosbox on my old celeron linux machine with a windows X server. As long as it's not a fullscreen 70 fps updating game it can work pretty decently 😀

I can't see a reason doing this except perhaps running some old style BBS software? OP, do tell!
