For long time users of the Apple Macintosh, the DOS environment might appear confusing at first. It helps to have experience with the System Terminal and the Command Line. Once set up however a simple shortcut will be all you need.
A graphical environment for DOSBox ScummVM. A cross-platform interpreter for many point-and-click adventure games Agat Emulator. Apple 2 and Agat 7/9 emulator. DOSBox will make you look the old MS-DOS commands over, since all operations are carried out through the instructions of this operating system. Notes For Mac OS X 10.3 or higher.
MS-DOS has never looked so good. Boxer is designed to look, feel and work beautifully: just like everything else you love on your Mac. That means Boxer fits hand in glove with OS X: you can launch programs and gameboxes straight from Finder, search your collection in Spotlight, add extra drives in DOS just by drag-and-drop. The mount command is used to mount directories ad virtual drives in DosBox. A common use is to mount a directory full of dos games as your c drive. To mount a directory as c, type the following command. MOUNT C C:DOSC It is also possible to mount iso files, this is done with the imgmount command. Imgmount E C:imagesmy-image-file.iso -t iso.

Installing
This guide will use the 0.74 Mac OSX version which is available for download. The 0.74 release is compiled as a Universal Binary, and will run on PowerPC and Intel based Macs. To install DOSBox, first expand the .ZIP file and copy the contents into a folder like DOSBox. Move this folder into your Applications folder.
Now you need to create a folder to MOUNT as your C: drive and hold your games. The most convenient location for this folder would be your home folder (which can be referenced as ~). In This example we will call our folder DOSGAMES. Inside this folder we can place all of the programs that we want to be available in our emulated DOS environment. Remember that while these files are buried deep in the file system with paths like ~/DOSGAMES/TESTDRV, inside DOSBox they appear as though they reside in the root of their mounted drive letter, so the above example in DOSBox would be located at C:TESTDRV (assuming that ~/DOSGAMES was mounted as C:).

Double click on the DOSBox icon in Finder to launch DOSBox for the first time. This will cause the DOSBox window to appear.

Assuming you placed it inside your home folder you should be able to run this command to MOUNT the folder.
Fcps windows 10. Now type this command to navigate to your newly mounted drive
Editing DOSBox preferences
After you first run DOSBox, go to the ~/Library/Preferences/ folder and open the newly created file DOSBox 0.74 Preferences. The exact folder name in the Finder may vary, depending on the language you use for OS X.
By editing this file, you can set the system settings and initialization values that define your emulated environment. You can also add MOUNT commands to the AUTOEXECsection at the bottom of the configuration files, so that you do not have to type them in every time you start DOSBox.
Running DOSBox with custom config
