78.32.81.25: /* A Common AUTOEXEC.BAT */ removed the useless second @, since it does nothing (@ surpresses command echoing for one line, but it was already off)

The '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''' file is a reference to original MS-DOS systems which would load settings from a file called '''CONFIG.SYS''' (which had to be located in the '''C:\''' path), and then execute any commands found in the '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''' (also in the '''C:\''' path). Commonly the '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''' file would define the system [[PATH]], load any drivers, and launch [[Software:Windows|Windows]]. Because DOSBox already emulates most of what a '''CONFIG.SYS''', and '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''' would do, there isn't much need to define anything other than your mountable drives.

The AUTOEXEC.BAT is a segment of the [[dosbox.conf]] file in the program directory of your DOSBox installation.

== A Common AUTOEXEC.BAT ==
@ECHO OFF
MOUNT C C:\DOSGAMES
C:
CLS
ECHO Starting MS-DOS 6.22...

This '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''' file [[MOUNT|mounts]] a [[CDrive|C drive]] (pointed to the Local-Directory C:\DOSGAMES), changes to that drive (from [[ZDrive|Z:]]), [[Commands#CLS|Clears the Screen]] and prints the message

Starting MS-DOS 6.22...

(The message that MS-DOS printed immediately before loading the '''CONFIG.SYS''' and '''AUTOEXEC.BAT''').

78.32.81.25: Added MOO2, which appears to work fantastically on my macbook pro 2.4ghz under dosbox 0.72

Here is a list of every article for every game that is known to work or not work on DOSBox. This list is naturally incomplete, but overtime, as users take the time to check on their favorite games, this list will help new users understand what they can expect to happen when they try and get their favorite game to work. Gaming is the primary focus of DOSBox, and the needs of games tend to receive a higher degree of attention by the developers over the needs of an [[Software|application]].
