Batari introduced me to DOSBox and I was getting excited that I can finally do 7800 development on my Mac. Well apparently not because when I run a78sign, it says that it cant be run in dos mode, but when I run it on the dos prompt of my PC, it works fine. Is there any way I can run this program on my Mac with out installing XP?

Is there a way I could insert a valid signature myself?

When I downloaded it ( cant remember from where ) it came with the C source .. so you could just compile that on your mac - or if you really want dosbox, compile it as a dos exe file

I know I've done it on my Mac. There must be a version already compiled somewhere on the Net. I'll see if I can find it later.

Thank you, that would be really helpful because I cant compile it on my own.

Bruce Tomlin has the source on his site. You should be able to compile for any OS including Mac and Linux.

Thanks, but how would I go about compiling it? I know nothing about C.
