1. About RunDOS
RunDOS is a tool which can easily help you to run MS-DOS software simply
by clicking on the icon. RunDOS is not an emulator. It just sends required
data to the DOSBox emulator.
2. Requirements
- MorphOS
- DOSBox
3. Instalation
Instalation is not very complicated but it needs some attention. The first
thing is to set up appropriate environment variables:
- RunDOSpath - here we put a source path to the executable DOSBox file
(eg. Work:Emulators/DOSBox/DOSBoxMOS).
- RunDOSCpath - here we put a source path to the configuration file of DOSBox
(eg. Work:Emulators/DOSBox/dosbox.conf).
It is important that the values of the variables need to be in one line
(without "enter" at the end). Those two files have to be put in ENVARC:
Executable file of RunDOS should be copied anywhere you want. I suggest C: directory.
4. How to use?
When you find a tool for MS-DOS we have to find its executable file. The
next thing is to add an icon to it and set its type on "project". In the
field "Default Tool" put path to the RunDOS. Basically that's all. Using
tooltypes we can set some DOSBox options (those tooltypes override the
variables used in the default configuration file (RunDOSCpath) of RunDOS).
The tooltypes are:
FULLSCREEN=true|false
CYCLES=2500
BLOCKSIZE=1024
FRAMESKIP=1
NOSOUND=true|false
AUTOEXECA=[line before generated by RunDOS autoexec]
AUTOEXECB=[line after genereted by RunDOS autoexec]
QUIT - DOSBox will be turn off after exit from DOS application
Tooltypes can be set separately for each program. Main configuration
file remains unchanged.
Now we are ready do double click on the icon and enjoy MS-DOS software
without need of running anykind of emulator.
WARNING: If the contest of DOSBox configuration file has been changed
in very sophisticated way - mainly in the matter of order of the RunDOS
variables - then there might occur some problems in setting the tooltypes.
5. At the end...
Big Thanks for Marcin KielisiƱski!
