Reason: Hundreds of DOS games. It's too cumbersome to enter the directory in command line mode and run the exe. Request for Help: Is there such a software: full - screen 5×4 / 8×6 screenshots of programs/games, support scroll bars. Select with arrow keys and mouse, and execute. Essentially: bind screenshots + sub - directories + exe(bat) to each other. And display on the screen for users to select. User database: 　　　　　　　Screenshot1.jpg Corresponding directory C:\DOS\mario mario.exe 　　　　　　　Screenshot2.jpg Corresponding directory D:\GAME\Goldenaxe gold.exe 　　　　　　　…… Must be a pure DOS software. Windows versions and DosBOX are ignored.

I'm an outsider, and here are my thoughts as an outsider. 1. The owner's approach is similar to the desktop shortcuts under XP. 2. For the software screenshot function realization, the pictures are arranged and displayed in the folder, and the batch processing connects the pictures with the execution program, choosing A = B. 3. It is estimated that those who are still using DOS programs at present are too lazy to do it. At least those who are used to it should consider whether they are willing to and whether the time is worth it. So conversely, the owner can try it himself because it is willing and worthy.

The program like you is called a front-end, which is just a management program. Now it's available, and it can also manage games on the game console platform, with screenshots, videos, and introductions all there.

I developed such a tool as early as 1996, but there was no display of screenshots. The CPU was too slow at that time, and other functions were all available. Seeing your post, I remembered this tool and特意 sent it out: https://www.cn-dos.net/forum/viewthread.php?tid=71244&fpage=1 Hope it helps everyone!
