:::Yes, we do need to implement some method of doing keyboard input with the Wii Remote. Currently you can only control the Joystick and Mouse if you don't have a USB keyboard. I'm not sure how easy it would be to implement the frontend we have on the other emulators, since DOSBox uses SDL.

:::Anyway, if you want to start individual DOS applications from the homebrew channel, you can copy your apps/dosboxwii folder to another folder in the apps directory, then copy a dosbox.conf file into that directory and edit it to include things in the autoexec section. sd:/dosbox will be automatically mounted as D: and the new folder in the apps directory will be mounted as C:, although you can unmount them if you want with mount -u and then mount them however you want. Don't forget to change the xml file to show a different name in Homebrew Channel. This doesn't solve the need for keyboard input in some games though.

::::Mapping the most common keys to some unused buttons on the Wiimote would go a long way. Like "1" = "Escape" and "2" = "Enter" would let most games get configured and started. Additionally, it could be useful to have "-" = decrease frame skip and "+" = increase frame skip. --[[User:Mr. Reaper|Mr. Reaper]] 06:09, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
