I'm trying to run a Magic-application, written for Dos, in DosBox.
It works, accept for the function keys, which is essential for this application.
How can I fix this?

Sorry no. I have a standard iMac-keyboard and I can't see anything like Fn, if that is what you mean.

thanx: MacX

Maybe the key which is now labelled with 'Command'?

Can't you just use the DOSBox mapper to move them to other keys?

I'll try this out as soon as I have figured out what this Dosboxmapper is.

thanx a lot.

I found that the issue could be solved by switching a toggle in the Apple Systempreferences.
Not a nice situation though, since if you have some music running in iTunes, you need the same buttons for the sound volume level.

Anyway, thanx everyone for their time and suggestions.
