What is BASIC 2 DOSBox?

BASIC 2 DOSBox

For those who still wish to run QBasic and QuickBASIC on modern operating systems, there are few options in terms of deployment and running possibilities. One option is running virtual machines, where guest implementation of QBasic is available, or resorting to DOS emulators, which offer advantages such as running outdated hardware in parallel and a more in-depth customization process with CPU throttling options.

Key Features:

• Facilitates deployment of BASIC onto users' hard drives


• Enables users to copy the preferred version of BASIC to their directories using a GUI


• Includes a detailed 4-part tutorial for deployment process


• Proposes an organizational scheme deployment process for efficiency


• Creates BASIC files and dependencies based on user-provided directories and settings

In plain words, BASIC 2 DOSBox simplifies the process of deploying BASIC by creating the necessary files and dependencies once users specify the destination directories, the path to the DOSBox executable, and their preferred QBasic version. The installation process also offers four distinct settings for additional customization.
