http://www.classics-for-x.info/csx/dapplegrey/ Dapplegrey is a front-end for DOSBox and Mac OS X. Thanks to The Emulationrealm for the news. * Supported DOSBox versions are still 0.65 up to 0.73 * Because of the compiler used to create Dapplegrey, its minimum system requirement meets the Mac OS X 10.4 operating system. * There is a new Dapplegrey preference setting: "Delay between DOSBox start and DOSBox being front-most application", given in seconds. Due to compiler reasons, DOSBox no longer can′t be activated immediately after its upstart, but Dapplegrey have to wait a few seconds until, since REALbasic changes its internal thread handle in version 2010r1. So, if both Dapplegrey & DOSBox get the spinning wait cursor, please force quit DOSBox first and then increase the wait amount to prevent the spinning wait cursor. In opponent, if the spinning wait cursor doesn′t appear with the current setting, you could try to decrease its value. * If you drag folders, drives and disk images onto Dapplegrey, Dapplegrey now asks a bit for confirmation: Do you want to see a list of its content after mounting in DOSBox? If folders or real drives are dragged onto Dapplegrey you ′ll get the option to select a DOS application first to run it immediately after DOSBox mounted its parent as drive. * If dragged onto Dapplegrey, DOS applications can be added to the Dapplegrey games list now. This, adding to the games list, doesn′t work with dragged folders only yet. * If the folder dragged onto Dapplegrey is called ′Windows′ and Windows 3.1 is installed inside, its parent will be mounted as drive C: in DOSBox automatically. This will be done to protect the Windows 3.1 installation, as it won′t run properly, if the Windows folder itself is mounted as the C: drive. * Also, onto Dapplegrey dragged folders will be checked for an installed Windows 3.1 version, so the user can decide whether he/she wants to run Windows 3.1 directly after DOSBox starts up. * The db-info.bat file created by Minimax of the DOSBox forums, which is included in the Dapplegrey Toolbox, can be executed from the DOSBox menu now, listing DOSBox settings of current selected game entry. Bugfixes: * Advanced CPU Cycle settings (′Cycles=auto 3000 80% limit 5000′ for example), which has been introduced a while ago, are working correctly now. * In the Window menu which lists most windows opened in Dapplegrey, the menu item which re-directs the user to DOSBox, gets no longer an empty name if the user drags a folder or drive onto the Dapplegrey application icon. * Disk images will be handled correctly now. For unknown reasons, Dapplegrey counted zero disk images after reading the games list at application start, even if some disk images has been added, at least on the Mac OS X 10.4.11 computer the Dapplegrey developer runs. Luckily, their names has not been lost, so Dapplegrey now always checks the names of the Disk images added, and if there some has been added, Dapplegrey fixes the number of its amount. Because this mistake should be independent of the Mac OS X version used, all users of Dapplegrey who (wanted to) use disk images, should re-check their disk image setting located in the ′Drives′ area of Dapplegrey. * Adding folders when selecting disk images no longer will be commented with ′No matching disk images has been found.′ Also, disk images matching the particular drive letter will be mounted correctly now. * Remember, to check whether Dapplegrey send the mount commands correctly to DOSBox, you may open the Dapplegrey DOSBox menu and call the menu items ′ List mount commands′ and ′Test mount commands′. * In the Preferences window, if you set the currently selected keyboard layout, the correct keyboard layout will be mentioned, in the Messagebox. Also, Dapplegrey now remembers the keyboard layout given to FreeDOS KEYB.EXE external keyboard driver application. Still missing: If a disk image file extension name is longer than 3 chars (.toast for example), disk image mounting still doesn′t work correctly. --
