Cool stuff... Just a couple recommendations if you ever want to cover DOS gaming on Linux.
First, dosbox-staging is a fork of the original dosbox but it's way better handling windows integration (under Linux at least), so switching from fullscreen, alt-tabbing or abandoning the window with mouse is no longer a problem.
And second, if you want to recommend integration with Steam DOS games, make sure to check boxtron, it's a wonderful tool that automate the process of integrating DOS games fully to the steam interface under Linux, to the point of letting overlays and controller mappings work seamlessly on them (personally playing System Shock Classic for the first time and using a Steam Controller feels like a completely modern game!).
Will keep an eye on your channel, best of luck!

I started my pc gaming life on Dos 3.1 and haven't looked back.. Next step may be going from Windows 10 to Linux Mint..
