Summary: i8086/DOS/VGA software emulator for running old games
Description:
DOSBox is graphical application that provides rich programming emulation of Intel 8086 real-mode, SVGA and DOS with XMS/EMS (but no DPMI!). This is very useful for running old good DOS games written for PC/XT/AT that's impossible directly on modern Pentiums, SUN's, PowerPC & etc. At least PII 400MHz is required for comfortable running. Full list of tested games successfully supported by DOSBox is published on the http://dosbox.sourceforge.net site. Run it as following: * dosbox /path/to/game.exe * dosbox /path/to/gamedir Examples: * dosbox /tmp/old-games/ugh.exe ...maps given directory to drive C: and start given EXE/COM/BAT-file * dosbox /usr/local/games ...maps given directory to drive C: and start built-in COMMAND.COM
