DOSBox creates a shell for you which looks like old plain DOS. Here are some commands to get you started: Before you can use the files located on your own filesystem, You have to mount the directory containing the files. For Windows: mount c c:\dosprog will create a C drive in dosbox with c:\dosprog as contents. For other platforms: mount c /home/user/dosprog will do the same. When the mount has succesfully completed you can type c: to go to your freshly mounted C-drive. Typing dir there will show its contents. cd will allow you to enter a directory (recognised by the [] in a directory listing). You can run programs/files which end with .exe .bat and .com. DOSBox will stop/exit without a warning if an error occured! . :SHELL_ILLEGAL_PATH Illegal Path . :SHELL_CMD_HELP supported commands are: . :SHELL_CMD_ECHO_ON ECHO is on . :SHELL_CMD_ECHO_OFF ECHO is off . :SHELL_ILLEGAL_SWITCH Illegal switch: %s . :SHELL_CMD_CHDIR_ERROR Unable to change to: %s . :SHELL_CMD_MKDIR_ERROR Unable to make: %s . :SHELL_CMD_RMDIR_ERROR Unable to remove: %s . :SHELL_CMD_DEL_ERROR Unable to delete: %s . :SHELL_SYNTAXERROR The syntax of the command is incorrect. . :SHELL_CMD_SET_NOT_SET Environment variable %s not defined . :SHELL_CMD_SET_OUT_OF_SPACE Not enough environment space left. . :SHELL_CMD_IF_EXIST_MISSING_FILENAME IF EXIST: Missing filename. . :SHELL_CMD_IF_ERRORLEVEL_MISSING_NUMBER IF ERRORLEVEL: Missing number. . :SHELL_CMD_IF_ERRORLEVEL_INVALID_NUMBER IF ERRORLEVEL: Invalid number. . :SHELL_CMD_GOTO_MISSING_LABEL No label supplied to GOTO command. . :SHELL_CMD_GOTO_LABEL_NOT_FOUND GOTO: Label %s not found. . :SHELL_CMD_FILE_NOT_FOUND File %s not found. . :SHELL_CMD_FILE_EXISTS File %s already exists. . :SHELL_CMD_DIR_INTRO Directory of %s. . :SHELL_CMD_DIR_BYTES_USED %5d File(s) %17s Bytes . :SHELL_CMD_DIR_BYTES_FREE %5d Dir(s) %17s Bytes free . :SHELL_EXECUTE_DRIVE_NOT_FOUND Drive %c does not exist! . :SHELL_EXECUTE_ILLEGAL_COMMAND Illegal command: %s. . :SHELL_CMD_PAUSE Press any key to continue. . :SHELL_CMD_PAUSE_HELP Waits for 1 keystroke to continue. . :SHELL_CMD_COPY_FAILURE Copy failure : %s. . :SHELL_CMD_COPY_SUCCESS %d File(s) copied. . :SHELL_CMD_SUBST_NO_REMOVE Removing drive not supported.
