Al1: Just thought any Mac users might like to know about Boxer, a nice package for DOSBOX for OSX. Basically, you load up boxer, a finder window opens up and you see an icon labeled 'drop games here to install them', and that's exactly what happens.
I popped in my CD of Star Wars Tie Fighter, which I have been unable to get running properly on my PC, dragged the install executable to the icon, and ran it perfectly, with no command input from me. After it had done the install, the software asked if I wanted to copy the CD to my hard drive, to avoid having to insert the CD every time i ran the game. It also created an icon to run the game in the same folder as the install games icon.
The only problem I can find with Boxer is that, as far as I can tell, it is much more of a resource hog than plain old DOSBOX or any other emulator I have run on my mac. I have a Powerbook G4, and TIE Fighter was running at less than a frame a second. I can only assume this is because of my weeny 1.6GHZ, and that Intel Mac Users should have no problems. It is not TIE Fighter related as one of the pre-installed games that comes with boxer also suffers a drop in framerate. Also, I cannot speak as to how well the software intergrates controllers, as I have not tried to use any.
All in all, a really nice piece of kit for Mac users, simply because it's a total breeze to use.

mogamer: Wow, this is great for Mac users! Sadly I can't use this program since I don't own a Mac. Is there anything like this for pc users? The biggest reason I rarely use dosbox is the same reason why I hated dos. I'm just too lazy to configure things and use line commands.

MaverickRazor: I don't know of anything for the PC that is exactly like Boxer, but there are a number of front ends which provide a windows GUI for DOSBox. There is a list on the DOSBox Wiki here.

Al1: front end were the words I was desperately searching for when I used the word package.

Arkose: I recommend D-Fend Reloaded. It can be as simple or as complex as you like; its Wizard mode can detect many games and set them up automatically based on profiles included with the frontend, while its pre-defined templates will help you get unlisted games set up quickly based on what the game is most like. You can also change any and all DOSBox settings through a GUI. You will never, ever need to manually tweak a setting in a config or within DOSBox itself again. This even includes advanced functions like virtual CD mounting and disc-swapping.
