I’d like to just casually boot straight into a game sometimes, or at least a mounted floppy. I don’t want to type commands is DOSbox for casual situations like this.
I’m focussing on games that can run straight from the floppy drive. Thanks!
Edit: I tried variations of this command in the macOS terminal:
/Applications/DOSBox\ Staging.app/Contents/MacOS/dosbox -c "imgmount a '/Users/io/Downloads/Prince.img' -t floppy" -c "a:" -c "dir /p"
The idea is that it would open DOSbox in the A: location, run dir /p. I should see prince.exe listed. Unfortunately what actually happens is I’m given a listing of Z: instead. When I try to switch to A:, I’m told that it needs to be mounted first. But I thought my terminal command takes care of that.
You don’t have to. It was to show how to use custom arguments. You can load a different config for different games if you’d like, but for your first example it should probably be:
open -a /Location/Of/dosbox -c "imgmount a '/Users/io/Downloads/Prince.img' -t floppy" -c "a:" -c "dir /p"
