Here's how to do a plain install of #DOSBox for Linux on the #SteamDeck, and how to create a launch file to add to Steam. This should work for any DOS game on the Steam Deck.

DOSBox launch command for your file:
"flatpak run com.dosbox.DOSBox /*YOUR EXE FILE HERE*"
If your folders have spaces in them like "/folder name/something/game" put quotes around the full path in the script.

This way you get full Native Linux DOSBox performance and configuration, plus it works properly with the Steam Deck features too. Lots of DOSBox games on Steam have old DOSBOX, poor configurations and so on. This way, you get to do whatever you want properly.
