To check the settings in advance use the same structure as what Data linked:

Code:

config -get "dos ems" > nul

if %CONFIG%=="true"**...

if %CONFIG%=="false" ...

Replace the "..." with commands, a goto one if you want more than one command to be executed for each option. You wouldn't need the %CONFIG% variable to be created if the CONFIG command returned errorlevels, but it always returns 0. But still command prompt input is faster than menus. I won't start with C code, I'm not that bored right now. :P

Tried that, doesn't seem to work. In fact, DB-info doesn't seem to cope well with any of the DosBox versions I have installed on my PC - reports v0.65 as 0.63 or lower, and for 0.66 it doesn't return the values for settings.

I haven't tried DB-INFO.BAT but I've just tried my code with DOSBox 0.65 and it works all right. (??)

Figured out why. Turned out that after leaving Norton everything worked allright.

So I went and re-worked the code (adding appropriate error messages). The entire thing weighs in at 2019 bytes now, 1394 without the chunks responsible for error reporting.

I might actually expand this thing to allow control of most DosBox settings. ^_^

Wow this look great :ok:
I never thought you could make it like this just in a bat file. And the code also looks ok.
