Dosbox-x 0.82.17 Configuration File

[inukaze]

Describe the bug Don't generate configuration file

To Reproduce 1) Download the source code : wget -c https://codeload.github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/tar.gz/dosbox-x-v0.82.17

2) Extract the source code

mv dosbox-x-v0.82.17 dosbox-x-v0.82.17.tar.gz
tar xfvz dosbox-x-v0.82.17.tar.gz

3) : Go to the new folder and compile

cd dosbox-x-dosbox-x-v0.82.17
./autoconf.sh
./configure --disable-avcodec --enable-sdl2 --prefix=/media/Compartido/Videojuegos/Msdos/dosbox-x/x86_64/0.82.17/sdl2
make
make install

4) Go the the prefix directory & update the symlinks

cd "/media/Compartido/Videojuegos/Msdos/dosbox-x/x86_64/0.82.17/sdl2"
sudo unlink /usr/bin/dosbox-x
sudo ln -s "$PWD/dosbox-x" "/usr/bin/dosbox-x"

5) Try to generate default configuration file :

dosbox-x config -all ./dosbox-0.82.17.conf

WARNING: Unknown option all (first parsing stage)**

dosbox-x -writeconf ./dosbox-0.82.17.conf

WARNING: Unknown option writeconf (first parsing stage)

dosbox-x -writeconf ./dosbox-0.82.17.conf

WARNING: Unknown option writeconf (first parsing stage)

Ok let me check available options :

dosbox-x --help

Expected behavior Generate the default configuration file with the name i specify

Environment (please complete the following information):

• GNU/Linux
• DOSBox-X 0.82.17 (Using SDL2)
• Used configuration : builtin , because its not capable of generate and external configuration file.

Additional context i try too from inside dosbox-x with : CONFIG.COM -all -wcd dosbox.conf and don't work neither

How i can fix it ?

[theMK2k]

it should work with CONFIG.COM -all -wcd

[inukaze]

don't work

[joncampbell123]

It works here, though it writes it to "dosbox-0.82.19.conf" by default

[inukaze]

Ok i try again.

Yes, its working :D
