I understand that, these days, most DOS users mostly play games on DOS. However, I for one would like to use a DOS emulator for other uses as well, such as drawing, composing music, programming, database/data organization, text editing/word processing, etc. I'd also like the following support from DOSBox:

[*]long filenames
[*]SVGA text modes
[*]mounting and using compressed drives
[*]using RAM drives
[*]config.sys support, even if limited

If you have any other ideas, please add them to this list. 😀
