Hi all,The latest version of DOSBox-X (0.83.9) is now officially released. As a cross-platform DOS emulator, there are quite a few improvements in this new release compared with the previous version 0.83.8, such as improved support for TrueType font (TTF) output and on-screen text styles (e.g. use actual bold/italic/bold italic fonts), much improved printing system, enhanced serial and parallel ports and options, support for time synchronization with the host, support for mounting ZIP or 7Z archives, support for selecting and copying text to clipboard via the keyboard, and many more. You can find the DOSBox-X 0.83.9 release notes here:https://dosbox-x.com/release-0.83.9.htmlWindows installer and Linux RPM/Flatpak packages are officially available to ease the installation, in addition to other packages including portable packages for Windows, macOS and DOS. You will find the official downloads for them from the DOSBox-X homepage:https://dosbox-x.com/Direct download to the Windows installer (many thanks to Edward Mendelson for code-signing it):dosbox-x-windows-0.83.9-setup.exeFor Linux, both RPM and Flatpak packages are officially available.

You can find them from the DOSBox-X homepage.Please check out the new release.Note: As with the previous version please set "output=ttf" (and optionally a TTF font of your choice with ttf.font option) for the TrueType font output.
For the on-screen text style feature, please set "ttf.wp=XY" or "ttf.wp=XY4" for XyWrite.
Also, as with the previous version you probably want to set "core=dynamic" and "cycles=max"
in the config file (dosbox-x.conf) for speed.
Thanks a lot for your support!
Sincerely,
Wengier
