Hello,
I am trying to run a basic old DOS program called Bertie3 on my Mac.

If anyone could help me I would be much obliged
Seems like it runs right away. No installer, no nothing. Just unzip and drag the BERTIE3.EXE to the DOSBox icon.

I can't drag it to the DosBox icon! Nothing happens 🙁
Hmm. Don't have a Mac, so someone else will have to explain why the Mac don't support drag'n'drop.

Sorry I thought it was obvious when I said Mac that how it runs on Windows is irrelevant.
Can any Mac users help?
Thanks!
maybe use a mac os x frontend for dosbox.

No it isn't.
I thought that drag and drop worked in Windows just because of the Windows APIs.

You can do it this way, I checked it before posting:
1) Open the PC game's Information window (or just do a right click on it)
2) Select "Open with...", choose "Other application"
3) In the upcoming dialog, activate "All Applications" to enable all applications available (DOSBox isn't selectable with standard "Recommended applications")
4) Select the DOSBox application
5) Do a double-click onto your PC game to start it with DOSBox
6) DOSBox will mount the folder of the PC game as drive C: and start the game.
