DBGL is a Java front-end for DOSBox, based largely upon the proven interface of D-Fend.
The front-end is by no means finished. It is a work in progress and lacking many features, but the core is working, and I think the product is somewhat usable as it is. Please bear in mind that the interface is still quite rough around the edges.
Here are some key features of "DBGL":
· D-Fend profiles importing
· Multiple DOSBox versions support, select any pre-configured version per profile
· Template support
· 2 URLs can be specified per profile
· Booter games support
· Basic zipfile support (using a dosbox version that has physFS integrated, for example Ykhwong's)
· Can easily handle 1000+ profiles (for those interested: DBGL uses the Java HSQLDB database engine, and SWT for its GUI)
· No data replication
· All DOSBox profile information that can be stored in the conf file is stored in there, and only in there Extra information such as the profile's Title, developer name, status etc is stored in a single humanly-readable database file, in db/databasescript What this basically means is that you can still start a given profile without even using DBGL (dosbox -conf dosboxconf -conf profiles1385conf), if you want.

· Implemented proper connection timeout when using websearch without internet connection. (kolano)
· Many minor improvements to the user-interface; added a tooltip for the active filter-tab which shows the number of profiles in the list (code120), if no mount is selected, but there is just one, DBGL will use that for the grabber, the notes field in the profile editor now uses the configurable (monospaced) font, added all/none image-selection buttons in the profile editor (RetroFAN), now providing an option to remove the profile-specific keymapper-file upon profile removal, fine-tuning of som...
