Starting Daggerfall w/ DOSBox : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

Is there a faster way to start up Daggerfall rather than typing in:

mount c c:\dosgames -freesize 1000
mount d c:\dosgames\dfcd -t cdrom -label Daggerfall
c:
cd\dagger
dagger

7.) This step is totally optional but highly recommended, and for people new to DOS it is very easy and effective. If you want DOSBox to start Daggerfall automatically this is the way to go. Go to Start->Programs->DOSBox .73->Edit Configuration. This should pull up "dosbox.conf" in Notepad. If it asks what program to open this file in, choose Notepad.

Most default settings are fine, but if you'd like Daggerfall to start automatically, scroll down to the very bottom of dosbox.conf. Copy the code in step above and paste it in the section that says "[autoexec]". Save the file.

At the bottom of the dosbox.conf, when ya done, it should look something like this:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.

mount c c:\dosgames -freesize 1000
mount d c:\dosgames\dfcd -t cdrom -label Daggerfall
c:
cd\dagger
dagger
