Choose your own DOS Box

The "DOS Box" feature should allow an alternative DOS box program to be chosen in the settings dialog. It would fit very nicely under the View --> DOS Prompt heading, though it has little to do with the "view" of the DOS box.

I use PromptPal, so I had to say yes :wink:

You can define it in the freecommander.ini in the [Form] section, for example:
DosCommandBoxSpec=cmd.exe

Are you sure about this? I just closed FC, added DosCommandBoxSpec=C:\Progra~1\JPSoft\TCCLE9\tcc.exe to my [Form] area, re-opened FC and the commands still launch CMD...

I am using FC 2009.02

EDIT - Oh, I see from another thread... only uses this when you use CTRL+D, not when you type a command at the bottom... shame...
