Hi Harry,Glad to hear that setting the video mode now works.To get a bright white background, you need to switch an internal option so that it will show high intensity background colors instead of blinking foreground text. Unfortunately it was not easy to be done in previous DOSBox-X versions. To overcome this issue I have already updated the DOSBox-X binary so that you can now change this easily either from the configuration or from the menu. If you set "high intensity blinking" to "false" in [video] section of the configuration then it will show high intensity background colors, not the blinking text.Alternatively, you can also toggle it at run-time from the menu - there is now a "Text-mode" menu group under "Video" menu which allows you to change this setting as well as changing the text-screen video modes, including 80x25, 80x50, 80x60, 132x25, 132x43, 132x50, 132x60, all from the menu. The updated Windows binary is still available from:Hope this helps.WengierOn Tuesday, October 27, 2020, 12:20:04 p.m. EDT, Harry Binswanger <hb@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:I see, even though the DIR shows no textutil.zip, if I run UNZIP Z:\TEXTUTIL.ZIP, it somehow works and gives me the .COM file I needed.So, now I've got 132x43. Wonderful! Thank you so much.Would you be kind enough to tell me how to get a bright white background? The best I can get is a medium dark gray for the background, though running COLOR inside Xy (in DOSBox-x) shows me many bright white foregrounds, so I know the color (which is number 15, I believe) is available.Regards,HarryOn Tue, Oct 27, 2020 at 5:39 AM Wengier W <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi Harry,How about download from here instead:Extract the files and run DOSBox-X as usual. Once DOSBox-X is running, mount the local directory (e.g. MOUNT C X:\) and go to that directory. Then type "UNZIP Z:\TEXTUTIL.ZIP" inside DOSBox-X. Hope this helps.WengierOn Tuesday, October 27, 2020, 01:34:32 a.m. EDT, Harry Binswanger <hb@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi, Wengier. This seems to be the answer, but I don't know how to get it. If I click on the link to dosbox-x-update.zip, I get "failed-insufficient permissions." I tried logging into Github (a site I should understand but totally don't) and I was able to download several things but nothing that unzipped to show textutil.Could I ask you to tell me the exact steps of how to get textutil.zip onto my system? My XyWrite directory is aliased to X:\ and that's where dosbox-x stuff lives.P.S. I see something was put up on Github by you 7 hours ago, but I can't find anyway to download it (if it is indeed the right file to download).Many thanks,HarryOn Mon, Oct 26, 2020 at 5:43 PM Wengier W <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi Harry,I think it is a pretty good request. Thus, I have decided to update the DOSBox-X binary so that in its Z drive you will find a zip package named TEXTUTIL.ZIP which contains various text utilities such as 132X25.COM, 132X43.COM, 132X50.COM etc. Unzip the package using the built-in UNZIP.EXE tool to a mounted directory, and then run 132X43.COM which will switch the DOSBox-X text screen to 43 rows by 132 columns. You can download the latest DOSBox-X binary package from:Hope this helps.Sincerely,WengierOn Monday, October 26, 2020, 03:15:32 p.m. EDT, Harry Binswanger <hb@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Does anyone (Ed M.? Wengier?) know how to set DosBox-x to 43 rows by 132 columns. I have pursued this on GitHub and the Wiki, but run into dead ends. For example, there are references to .cpp files, but I don't think I have those. If I found them, I wouldn't know how to use them (autoexec.bat? new lines in the .conf file?)In the .conf file, I setwindowresolution = 1920x1080but that did not help with Xy's d sw=132.There is a reference tobut that gives a 404 errorI also see a "tw" setting but I don't know where it would go or what to do with it.Ideally, as with vDOS-Plus, one would put into the .conf file lines like:columns=132rows=43
