The thirty eight programs are on two pages of the Menu - Menu1 and Menu2.

Just double click the program you want to use.

The first twenty programs are for smaller children.

After that I had older children in mind but the younger children may also like them.

In DosBox each time you load a program You will see it:

  • searching for fonts
  • looking up tables
  • looking up sine and cosine tables
  • etc.

The programs may take a little time to load.

When you are finished using the programs you can exit by clicking on the door at the bottom of the screen, or by simply closing DosBox.
