I like to use batch files and then use the choice command as this gives plenty of scope for game changes and makes it easy for my son to startup games, if I need to I can just branch off to multiple pages of a menu and add or change things pretty easily, the speed changes are made really easy with 'config -set' commands. I haven't tried any of the more advanced ASCII art but I presume that it will work in dosbox also so could be used to pretty the interface up a bit!
other people will probably like different ways but as I started as a dos guy this is easiest for me so I though I would post it incase it helps anybody else example ( it's a bit rough but was just for an example!! ) - echo off :menu cls echo. echo. echo Chose a game! echo. echo 1. Bio Menace 1 echo 2. Bio Menace 2 echo 3. Bubble Bobble echo 4. Duke Nukem echo 5. Cyber Plus echo 6. God of Thunder echo 7. Exit echo. echo. choice /c:1234567 which_program? if errorlevel==7 goto exit if errorlevel==6 goto got if errorlevel==5 goto CyberP if errorlevel==4 goto nukem if errorlevel==3 goto bubble if errorlevel==2 goto bio2 if errorlevel==1 goto bio1 :bio1 bio cd bio bmenace1 cd\ goto menu :bio2 bio cd bio bmenace2 cd\ goto menu :bubble cd bubble config -set cycles=550 bubble config -set cycles=6000 cd\ goto menu :nukem cd duke2 nukem2 cd\ goto menu :CyberP cd cyb cybplus cd\ goto menu :got cd got got cd\ goto menu :exit |

Aah, the good old batch files
Nice one, good to insert it in the autoexec part of dosbox.conf. |
