SDL Now Supports DOS

All that's left now is SDL for UEFI, and then all our games can run in a pre-OS environment.

This is an especially funny screenshot as DosBOX itself is built on SDL.

Awesome. I wonder how this would work with a 386+ targeted MS-DOS executable from FreeBASIC, which supports binding to SDL.

Perfect! I was just doing some Turbo C development inside DOSBox-X inside Debian GNU/Linux inside VMware Fusion inside macOS this morning.

For a open source project like SDL is, for something like this, it's usually a matter of how invasive it is, and how likely the contributors seem to stick around and maintain it.

Different projects have different policies, and I don't know what SDLs is.

But they already have a lot of ports, so I trust they know what they're getting themselves into.

Technically this already worked with HXDOS, which emulated DirectDraw well enough that SDL could use it.

Good - now we can play more DOS games again!

Well I guess Allegra was a bit old already /s

Uhm... excuse me? Why? Is there anyone even using DOS for anything serious these days?
