How does one avoid having to hit Enter when loading dosemu in a console session?

Edit the "dosemu" script or (but I haven't tested this recently) create the file ~/.dosemu/stamp-dosemu.

What exactly is the file stamp-dosemu? I have one in that directory, but it's zero length.

DOS's hotkeys and KDE

How can I avoid that keystrokes like <Alt+F2> or <Alt+F5> get interpreted by KDE in XDOSEMU?

The probem is that I need a lot of these hotkeys for NDN and my Editor and various popup windows keep getting in the way :(

I re-read the docs a few times, but I must have missed something...

thanks,
Alain

Re: DOS's hotkeys and KDE

Thanks Ralph and Andris,

This is the general approach that I had already used, but isn't there a configuration specific por DOSEMU or in KDE for a specific window?

I am using KDE 3.2, and will move to 3.3 only in +- 2 months when Mandrake 10.2 is out. (all my atempts to upgrade Kde/Kdevelop were a complete disaster)

Re: DOS's hotkeys and KDE

If you find one, I'd love to know what it is. I would love to keep this to specific windows too.

[yes, I am aware that my reply is 6 months later, sorry]

Hmm, actually, after the first time, you shouldn't need to hit Enter at all. The "dosemu" script prints this:

~~~~
DOSEMU will run on _this_ terminal.
To exit you need to execute 'exitemu' from within DOS, because <Ctrl>-C and 'exit' won't work!

Now type ENTER to start DOSEMU or <Ctrl>C to cancel
~~~~

and creates "stamp-dosemu" the first time it runs. Next time, it skips the message if it finds "stamp-dosemu".

So what exactly is being printed before you have to press Enter? What version are you using?
