Hi There:

I downloaded Dosbox Turbo into a tablet (Nexus 7, running Android 4.2.2). I then installed an old, small 16-bit DOS program that is not a game, but a GPS calculator. So the system requirements aren't very much.

To facilitate input, I also installed Hacker's Keyboard.

The DOS environment appeared to be fine. However, as I input the numbers I found that at one point, the program skips a line of input, and can't be backed up to that line. Obviously this causes problems with the calculation.

When I run the same program in the MS-DOS prompt of a laptop with Windows 7 or 8, the calculation is fine. The program does not skip a line.

I am unsure of whether the problem is the tablet keyboard or the Dosbox Turbo program.

I am wondering if someone can help with this. I can send an email with pictures showing the problem, or even the small program itself in a zip file. It's not very big.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Regards,

waynrayn
