DOSShell is an x86 applications launcher plus convenient Explorer-like entries manager that works in tandem with the outstanding DOSBox emulator.

Use this a so called frontend for the DOSBox emulator and forget about typing-in boring commands at the DOS-Prompt: you can run your favorite old games and programs by one click. It's so easy as you run applications with the Windows Explorer!

Key Features:

• You can add new records into the application list.
• You can edit properties of existing entries.
• You can delete unnecessary entries.
• Convenient user interface.
• The program is absolutely free.

What's New
What's new in the DOSShell 1.6 (comparing to v1.5):

• Fixed the problem with an ellipsis character in some menu captions.
• Changed the main icon of application.
• Revised the readme documentation. Thanks a lot to William Yates!
• Redesigned the About and Add/Edit Entry dialog windows.
• Now the settings, database and temporary files are being stored in the user application data folder. It solves the problem of running installable version on NT Windows systems from a non-admin user account.
• Added an ability of auto-closing the DOSBox emulator at the end of program's execution.
• Added an option of running all applications in the fullscreen mode.
• Now you can specify command-line parameters for each entry in the application list.
• A few internal improvements.
