DOS with XP

[rjb]

I have a lot of DOS programs which I like to run in Windows DOS-boxes. After
installing WinXP I find that I cannot get a decent-sized DOS-box. After
fiddling with fonts the best I get is one that covers one third of the
screen area. Can anyone tell me how to get a DOS-box to fill the screen?

Thanks

Use the Command Prompt Properties and select LAYOUT, change Width to 80 and
Height to 25.
Go to SHORTCUT and Run Maximized.
This is the same as the settings of DOS command: Mode Con:

I run DOS on a daily basis and still LOVE it!
After you open the DOS block, hold down the Alt key and press Enter.
Happy putering.
