Well, it could work for files that are accessed as FS images, but certainly not for the FS redirection. And even DOSLFN's FS image mode (where DOSLFN just sees a typical FAT FS) might not work correctly with DOSBox's built-in DOS because of the latter's peculiarities. (DOSLFN should work for typical FAT FS inside a DOS booted in DOSBox, though.) > Yes, its cpu emulation is good, Nah. It doesn't even properly implement tracing with TF. I did patch that locally, but they'd probably turn down patches like that because "no game needs it" and if that's the case, they don't want it (even if it doesn't do any harm). Such seems to have been handled better by dosemu, too.
