The record

Purpose: DOSBox PSP is a port of DOSBox for the PlayStation Portable.
Origin: The project describes itself as DOSBox with PSP patches applied and says it was originally ported to PSP by crazyc.
Configuration: DOSBox settings are stored in dosbox.conf, with some options changeable through batch files and others requiring direct edits to the configuration file.
Memory limits: The PSP 1000 is limited to around 12 MB of memory, while later models may use up to around 44 MB; higher values can cause instability.
Performance: The dynamic CPU core can improve performance for most games, though the extra speed may reduce stability.
Game tuning: The project says CPU cycle settings are the main determinant of game performance and may require trial and error.
Model support: A release says support was restored for PSP 2000, 3000 and Go models, which can allocate about 42 MB by changing memsize in dosbox.conf.
Keyboard limitation: A release notes that the on-screen keyboard was still pretty much broken.
Launcher: The initial pre-release build has no file manager and boots to a command line; its release notes recommend including a third-party launcher such as LaunchBox for MS-DOS.
Build requirement: Building the project requires the PSP toolchain, and the README documents compiling and packaging a PSP executable.
License: The repository lists a GPL-2.0 license.
Compatibility resources: The project wiki lists configuration, input mapping, compatibility information, batch files, IR keyboard support and launchers among its resources.
What it does: DOSBox PSP is a port of DOSBox for the PlayStation Portable.
Base version: A release describes DOSBox PSP as based on DOSBox 0.72.
Price from: Free
