Bill, did you ever get an answer to your question? You're referring to DOSBox-X, yes? I can't speak to Macs, but in Windows the configuration file is "dosbox-x.conf"; I assume that it's the same for the Mac version.ve the existing configuration. I imagine that the installer for Mac provides the same option.
