Hi There,

Is there a 'universal' version of DosBox coming for us 'Intel-Mac' users? The PPC version (via Rosetta) is too slow to be used properly, so I was wondering whether there it is being ported.

Thanks
Olaf

Search. I think that the Mac universal binary was discussed here before. As far as I know there are some alignment problems in dynamic core on Intel Macs, there is a patch on sourceforge (it fixes it, though from what I have heard it is more like workaround than fix).
Generally: neither of developers works on Mac, so it is up to Apple users to provide the binary... the binary certainly exists already (I mentioned the fix for the dynamic core...).
Maybe some other Mac users will know...
