2: Internal Code              BOXDICE
3: Start-up Directory         ../xtrn/boxdice
4: Command Line               boxdice boxdice.cfg
5: Clean-up Command Line
6: Execution Cost             None

8: Execution Requirements
9: Multiple Concurrent Users  Yes
10: I/O Method                 FOSSIL or UART
11: Native Executable/Script   No
12: Use Shell or New Context   Yes
13: Modify User Data           No
14: Execute on Event           No
15: Pause After Execution      No
16: Disable Local Display      No
17: BBS Drop File Type     (R) GAP             door.sys
18: Place Drop File In         Node Directory

I think I had to make some changes. Specfically, make sure I/O method
is FOSSIL or UART, Native Executable/Script is set to No and Use Shell
or New Context is Yes. The rest shouldn't matter. With these 3 set,
dosemu2 definitely works with the latest synchronet.
