For some DOS applications I don't know how to properly quit. I wouldn't mind force quitting.
I would like to return to the original prompt from where I started the DOS application.

  • - Workaround using DosBox Keymapper Press CTRL-F1 to enter the keymapper and select the backslash with your mouse. Press the DELETE button that will show up on your screen. Then press ADD to bind backslash to another key. Simply press an unused key to bind it to this. Press SAVE and then EXIT to return to the main screen.

  • That just brings me back to where I was before opening the key mapper. And why do you suggest overwriting the mapping for backslash instead of just opening and exiting the key mapper? For which application does that workaround help? @manjesh23
