#BOXER MAC OS X FOR MAC OS X#

UAE is not the friendliest of apps and the existing front-ends are not as nice as Boxer. I'd love to see an Amiga front-end like this. I might just go back and finally play King's Quest V - that was the one game I missed from that era but kept meaning to play. It helped that the chosen system Boxer uses to manage DOS games is pretty much how I did it manually anyway (~/DOSgames) and the interface to adjust the various settings is far better than DOSbox itself exposes. I still own some of the actual boxes, although most have fallen apart or been chucked out to save space. I had to spend a few hours on Mobygames downloading the box art for the games I own, and ended up with a nice pretty virtual shelf of games. Boxer's Finder integration is just awesome. Most of them are just terrible and I grew up editing DOS batch files and managing memory manually so that's all part of the DOS experience for me. I've been using DOSbox since way back, but this is the first front end I've actually wanted to use. *Off course now I know I'm wrong and that The Situation is the second coming of Christ, and the rest of the Jersey Shore cast are the apostles, because it has to be a miracle to be famous by just being talentless, narcissistic, and have nick names like 'Snookie' which sounds like what a prostitute would give you for a buck and a half behind a dark damp alley way. I may have to check out Boxer again, although most of my favorite classic games run via Scumm VM. I use DOSBox without it because I grew on DOS long before I took a sip of the Kool-AIid and became convinced Jobs was the second coming of Christ*.

I think anyone who googles for DOS emulation for Mac OS X ultimately finds out about DOSBox and Boxer, only because, IIRC, Boxer is mentioned as a front end for DOSBox on their website. As he was laughing, pieces of the sandwich he was eating were falling out of his mouth. Several months ago, Comp Guru was guffawing when I mentioned Boxer as an alternative to old DOS games on Steam. Alun Bestor only recently redesigned it as a Cocoa app.Д«ut I'm flabbergasted that nobody knew about the best DosBox frontend.* It used to be an AppleScript app that was fairly awesome. Apple recommends it for all OS X 10.7 users. Really?! Nobody knew about Boxer until a few days ago?! Boxer has existed for several years now. Mac OS X 10.7.1 was released today, both for Mac OS X Lion clients and servers.
