Open / Run .bat file on Ubuntu Machine (DOS emulator set default application)

This is a quick procedure on how to run your batch file in Ubuntu Base Machine. (I assume you already have a .bat file.)

  1. Install DOS emulator.
    • sudo apt-get update
    • sudo apt-get install dosemu

  2. Make DOS emulator to be listed on Default Application List by editing the dosemu.desktop file.
    • sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/dosemu.desktop
    • Find the "Exec" variable (i.e, Exec=/usr/bin/xdosemu).
    • Append these characters " %f" at the end of the line (i.e, Exec=/usr/bin/xdosemu %f).
    • Save the document.

  3. Set DOS emulator as a default application for your .bat file.
    • Right-Click .bat file
    • Select Properties
    • Click "Open With" Tab
    • Select "DOS emulator" from list
    • Click "Set as default"
    • Close the properties window

  4. Double-Click your .bat file and you should see that it is run by Dos Emulator.
