Also - slightly different question - Could I write a batch file to call DosBox and then the game, rather than launching through Dfend?* (I saw something in the tutorial about DosBox only reading Autoexec.bat when launched from the start menu . . .)
Yes, you can... just copy the "dosbox.conf" located at the DOSBox instalation folder, and edit it; at the end there are lines saying:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.

there you can place the comand lines - example, if you have F-19 game in folder c:\games\f-19

mount c c:\games
c:
cd f-19
f-19.exe
exit

In this file you can also change CPU settings, fullscreen mode, etc...

Then you just create a .bat file with this command inside:
dosbox -conf c:\games\f-19\dosbox.conf
