Hello

I'm sure its simple but can't seem to see it. Can anyone explain please how to scroll UP through the files in DOSBox. If there are loads of files as in Deathgate, it only shows the last half & if I put screen to full size, it just makes the letters bigger! Tried Page Up/Down

Can find them in ordinary Windows of course but its easier if you're in DOSBox, if you can see them there for typing

Thanks
Jo

Type dir/w/p. You could also just type dir/p too.

/w being the command to make it display them horizontally, /p making it pause when the screen is full. I think.

We need a tutorial about all the possible DOS commands under DOSBox in the Troubleshooting archive. Anyone?
