![]() Just something I came up with last night and decided to make the concept a reality.
Since DosBox allows command-line based changing of emulation parameters, this little batchfile (I know, I suck at programming <_< ) allows the user to change the EMS/XMS/UMB settings easily. |

![]() Nice one.
You might want to take a look at the db-info.bat created here http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=14601 It shows some power of the config utility. (things you probably didn't know)

![]() And it has also shown me how I can do certain things better than I did them in this one.
Thanks!!! I was thinking how to code a more extensive config utility without having to do it the way I did this one (grossly inefficient code). Guess I know what I'll be doing this evening |

![]() Better use input parameters, it's more agile. For example, EMS.BAT:
Code:
@echo off if %1=="true"**goto true if %1=="TRUE"**goto true if %1=="on"****goto true if %1=="ON"****goto true if %1=="false" goto false if %1=="FALSE" goto false if %1=="off"** goto false if %1=="OFF"** goto false config -get "dos ems" echo. echo. goto end :true config -set "dos ems=true" goto end :false config -set "dos ems=false" :end Code:
@config -set "cpu cycles=%1"

![]() I like he idea, but I see there is room for improvement.
I don't know if it's too difficult to check in advance what all the settings are instead of enabling them all. Maybe it is an idea to use a real programming language like C, because you can use more functions and control structures. Keep up the good work. |

![]() To check the settings in advance use the same structure as what Data linked:
Code:
config -get "dos ems" > nul if %CONFIG%=="true"**... if %CONFIG%=="false" ...

Maybe when I'm really bored then I'll try a version in C or maybe in Quickbasic, but right now I think I already have enough unfinished projects going. Good luck with your project. |

![]() Nice one the_fifth_horseman. I like it as I can use it to do stuff I never knew DOS box could do.
