Most of the fancier frontends are Windows-only, but Kymaera and GameLauncher have DOS versions.

I always thought that Kymaera is for Windows. Does it really run in Pure DOS ?
Crazy Cooter:
I downloaded MAMEWAH yesterday. It's not hard. Poke around in the software forum for details on how to set it up. It took me a few hours but it's worth it. I was going to do my own shell design using talisman/litestep or something similar, but MAMEWAH does everything I want it to.
You don't need to know DOS for MAMEWAH. It uses .ini files very similar to .cfg files for quake. If you've ever written any "code" for a rocketjump or quickweapon script, you know much more than you need to.

Maybe I should have said "Kymaera WILL be available on DOS".
RayB:
If you go pure DOS, what do you use to edit INI files?
Back in the day I used Norton Commander for that stuff and more, but I don't have a copy of that anymore.
