zip file structure

[Nikomaru]

In testing the app, I was able to run Rogue, as it is a single file. Another test that is failing is Quick Basic 7.1, with a nested folder structure. I'm wondering if js-dos has inherent ability to allow a program to access other files in the zip? Some files are across different folders and require loading as well. What is the limitation on folder structure?

Hmm. After double checking (in Chromium) the developer view, I see that yes, indeed, js-dos goes through the entire zip extracts everything. Then loads the appropriate file. I'm however getting some "uncaught ReferenceError: $st is not defined" at line 168 of the js-dos-api.

Module.prototype.print = function(text) {
text = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments).join(' ');
return typeof console !== "undefined" && console !== null ? typeof console.log === "function" ? console.log(text) : void 0 : void 0;
};

I have no skill in this area. Looks like it's doing it's job and I should try a different browser.

Firefox is giving me a type error:

TypeError: asm.js type error: Disabled by debugger js-dos-api.js

Sorry if this isn't very helpful. I didn't do any crazy stuff with the api. It just doesn't run the program with its dependencies, I guess.

I'm loath to throw this out there, but if it helps to take a look: http://nikomaru.tripod.com/js-dosbox.html

js-dos should respect file structure from archive. Try to double check files, filenames should have exact match. FS is case sensetive. From your link, you tried to run ./BIN/QBX.EXE, but actual file is: BC7/BIN/QBX.EXE.

Okay. That was a little confusing. Looking at my zip, I see I messed it up by putting everything in a folder a the top level. Didn't even notice! And here I was thinking I was following the api with the proper location path string.
Thanks for your time!
