dosdash - Graphical menu dashboard for MS-DOS

Post by Kamineko »

I wrote a stylish, simple and customisable dashboard interface for MS-DOS gamers called dosdash.

The HTML file to generate menu entries is very nicely done.
If they think you're crude, go technical; if they think you're technical, go crude. I'm a very technical boy.

You mean the artwork, Giles? I mentioned the image source in the readme.

Thanks, kiwi. The generator is pretty bare bones visually and not very friendly but I hope it gets the gist along of how to make database entries. Using the browser to handle image loading gets me loads of compatibility with no effort. I was going to make some commandline tools but I'd have to keep everything in sync, and until somebody complains they can't make new icons easily in a purely Win 3.1 environment, I'm not going to consider it a live issue.
