I'm running an old outliner called Maxthink in DosBox 0.74 under OSX Snow Leopard. This program needs the function keys, particularly F8, F9 and F10 for rapidly creating new topics. These work in full screen mode but not in a window (I get the Mac defaults). Any way to get them to work in a window?

Thanks for your help! I already did that. Function keys F1-F7 work correctly. F8-F12 need the function key as well. Go figger 😀
A satisficing solution as they say in operations research.
