Dear BillI don't use DOSBOX but the symptoms you are reporting sound similar to those in DOS, VDOS etc when you have not specified the location of XYWrite in the Path setting.

For example, I invoke dosbox from a folder called xyz. But when I try to save the map file, I get the console message, cannot open file in xyz/xyz. (It repeats the name of the folder.) So I created that dummy folder, and sure enough, the map file got saved there. However, it still doesn't register. From dosbox I can explicitly say, load this map file, and still the change will not occur. After restarting dosbox, the mapper editor always shows the original setting. I also couldn't get any font setting to work. I tried Carl's settings, but they just resulted in error messages, even when I eliminated all the white space. I also find that I cannot get the screen length commands to register, and I can't get any ttf font to load. Should the font be included in the dosbox folder? I have to invoke these commands from the dosbox menu, laboriously, each time. I am finding everything much speedier, but I still am annoyed by a delay-before-repeat upon keypress and would love to be able to change that.

You use the top-line menu Main, then Mapper Editor, and then follow Wengierâ’’s instructions exactly as written. Click Save when done.
