Have you tried "cd /arena", instead?

EDIT: And are you running DOSBox from DOSBoxFE? I haven't come across that behaviour when running from the front-end.

Lol... yeah. Tried that and about 800 other commands. Any command that would lead to a DIR change gives me the message I mentioned earlier. And I got the Emulator from the appstore page.

Guys, check the keyboard layout in DosboxFE (Misc-->DOS, BIOS, joystick).

Set it to your local layout and it should work fine

it doesn't have GB or US in the list of keyboard layouts though so what are supposed to select.

If your problem is typing the colon, I guess you´ll be fine with another layout (Being SP in my case and the colon key is in the right place...Shift + dot key)

I have the exact same problem - no : or ~

I've switched to a Spanish layout and the problem is still there. Anyone?

I don't know about the ~ but a : can be done using the WinBox mapper-0.74.map file.

Get WinBox HERE

Run Winbox (winbox.pnd) and then Exit so it creates the appdata stuff.

Copy the appdata/winbox-1/.dosbox/mapper-0.74.map file to the appdata/dosbox/.dosbox/ folder.

Now shift + tab = :

This .map file works for Dosbox74.pnd, If you are using version .73 rename the mapper-0.74.map file to mapper-0.73.map.
