That's very nice, indeed.

Ahem, and how many front-ends have been discontinued since they started with front ends?

Keep your PC and current OS in good working order. :)

Mess...? not nicely sorted folders???

Damn!! I have separate folders for a lot of content types..

My ISO's (and sorts) are in D:\Games\Isofiles
My Dosgames (as in that "virtual C" of yours) D:\Games\DOSDrive (also used in VPC Win3.11 as network Drive Z:\)
My Windows games (outside of Dosbox & VPC) D:\Games (the only point of mess making)

btw.. I'm one of those guys that type every thing @ the prompt (except for the C:\ mount, which is in the autoexec of course)

Congrats on getting handle of dosbox. What I like to use the dosbox frontends for is the cd rom based games that you cant run with out the cd so I dont have to fool around with the imgmount command trying to get it to work but that just me. Its up to you on what you decide to do.
