First, I apologize if this post is in the wrong section. It seems this forum layout is kind of like dos. it takes a certain type of thinking to understand its intricacies. Unfortunately, I am not such a person. My first computer ran win 95. Therefore about half of my games, or rather half of the games i wanted to play, ran in dos. or would have, had I the know-how to get more than a handful of them to work.

So dosbox, and D-Fend Reloaded have been a godsend to me. however, i have one small problem, specifically with Dungeon Hack, but in the future im sure it will become a more general problem.

There are two issues.

1st. I am trying to add the cheat command to my dungeon hack profile. (the "set aesop_diag=1" line.)
I can start a dosbox prompt and enter this in manually, and i realize that its only a single small line of text, but I would like to know if there is a way in D-fend Reloaded to accomplish this automatically.
I have attempted adding it to the main profile page (sorry if i get the correct names wrong, im typing this from the car, on a phone). The field right underneath where the game's .exe file is listed. however that just gives me an error message. I am assuming that this is because that line is for parameters added to the exe command.
I am unsure where to place the command in the profiler. I have even opened the config file and added the line numerous times and saved, both with the game open and not, and with the d-fend reloaded front-end open and not, but no matter what i do, the config file reverts back to default, removing my added command. I have even opened it under "run as admin" in win 7 (which i am using) but the results are the same.

if anyone can help me, i would greatly appreciate it.

2nd.
I am hosting an "Emulation Station" for members of my order in the android game, Rage of Bahamut. I am Posting pre-set versions of dosbox for both PC and Android, along with all the tools they need to get them running (ie, the hacker's keyboard, etc.), in the hopes that even the non-technical minded, short attention span types will be able to enjoy some great games.
Right now my setups include the config files for games, but not the games themselves. My question was, If I only include abandonware/and/or homebrew games, is it still not appropriate to include games WITH an emulator? (also, im not sure if dosbox falls under the same emulation standards of mame and console emu's)
I want to make the install as painless as possible for them, with no room for them to mess it up. But I also do not want to do anything illegal. I encourage all of them to buy some games from gog, and other sites that have been re-releasing dos games.
I can always set up the games in a folder that they can drag and drop onto their SD card, once they have my preset version of dosbox installed, but as long as there is nothing wrong with it, it would be extremely helpful to include the pre-set dosbox WITH the games. But again, I don't want to do anything wrong. I'm well aware of the emulator laws in regard to consoles, SNES, Genesis, NEO-GEO, MAME, etc. But with dosbox, and abandonware, my knowledge is somewhat lacking.

If you can help me with information regarding either of these two issues, please let me know.
