EmuCR: DOSBoxDOSBox SVN r3900 is released. DOSBox emulates an Intel x86 PC, complete with sound, graphics, mouse, joystick, modem, etc., necessary for running many old MS-DOS games that simply cannot be run on modern PCs and operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and FreeBSD. However, it is not restricted to running only games. In theory, any MS-DOS or PC-DOS (referred to commonly as "DOS") application should run in DOSBox, but the emphasis has been on getting DOS games to run smoothly, which means that communication, networking and printer support are still in early development.

DOSBox also comes with its own DOS-like command prompt. It is still quite rudimentary and lacks many of the features found in MS-DOS, but it is sufficient for installing and running most DOS games.

DOSBox SVN Changelog:
r3900
Map a single 4kB page of video memory that repeats in the 32kB range when in Hercules text mode, making it compatible with MDA. Fixes Future Wars and Operation Stealth install programs on the Hercules machine type.
---------------------
r3899
Use clock_gettime when available instead of the obsolete ftime.
---------------------
r3898
Add --disable-fpu-x64 which is the same as --disable-fpu-x86 for clarity reasons
---------------------
r3897
No response from MSCDEX when it's not installed/active. Allows install programs from the V for Victory series of games to work provided no cdrom drives are mounted.
---------------------
r3896
Do less to update the frequency of an active SB DMA transfer, and include DSP command 0x41 (fixes SB16 sound in Tempest 2000). Handle DSP command 0x42 as unimplemented, because it is.
---------------------
