No Python interpreter? this simple RAT installs its own copy

I only own a couple of DosBox games (Duke 3D, Ultima: Worlds of Adventure 2: Martian Dreams), and whilst both include the source on Windows (dosbox-0.74-2.1.tar.gz), I can't find any manuals that look out of place.

The DMG for the Mac version of Duke 3D doesn't appear to include the source or a Harvester manual, though it seems to be based on Boxer, not just DosBox. The Mac PKG for Ultima does have the source (dosbox_svn.zip), but no (edit: out of place) manuals as far as I can tell.

I wonder if the Harvester manual you're seeing is a GoG artifact from reusing the same DosBox setup as Harvester and they forgot to remove it, as the source from Ultima includes a file called "harvester_mouse_clean.diff".

Try downloading a free game.

I found and downloaded Jill of the Jungle, which is a free game that uses dosbox and is available on mac.

after you install the game, check out

  <dir>/Jill of the Jungle The Complete Trilogy.app/Extras/Manual.pdf

By the way, I've never seen them shipping boxer, although I have moved some games to boxer because it is much more in-tune with macos. It's really good if you have midi roms.
