1. DOSBox It's README:
1a Is it too difficult ?
1b Should it be advertised more actively by DOSBox ?
1c Does DOSBox need more/different documentation ?
|
I'd say that the readme is allright as it is, but before the first startup of the program after the installation, a "lite" idiot-proof version should be displayed, covering most common problems of dosbox newbies and their solutions (like "why the hell do I get a Z drive and cannot enter C???".

2. DOSBox has an startup message (that blue "window" with text in it).
2a. What can be improved about that ?
|
I don't think it can be improved. Though to speak the truth I don't really like it at all... it reminds that it's only an emulation.

3. Should DOSBox be more intelligent ?
3a. automaticly mount your C drive if you type c: ?
|
Yes, but only if no drive has been mounted in autoexec or mounted before.

3b. if it detects that a drive is a cdrom -> automaticly mount it as "-t cdrom" ?
|
Definitely. That would be a major improvement.
It would be great if the settings could be altered "on the fly" straight from DB command line. As it is currently, closing DB, altering the settings and then re-runing it umpteenth time over can get on someone's nerves.
Not certain if it can really be possible to execute, though.
