Launching From Conf Files Not Available in GUI

The dosbox-pure core can launch files directly from conf files which, while not preferred, allows easier transition of settings and mounting commands between various versions of dosbox without the need to manual edit core settings. I've noticed this isn't an available option within RetroArch, though. Selecting a conf file doesn't list the dosbox-pure core as a launch option, currently. I'm not familiar enough with RA to know if this is configurable by the user, but it seems it should be an available option since the core launches from conf files just fine via command line.

Hi there. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. While I update the libretro .info file in my GitHub project I was not aware that I need to submit update requests to the official libretro .info file collection repository as well. Here's the changes on the libretro side that I submitted now: libretro/libretro-super#1676 libretro/libretro-core-info#53 Once the online-update server gets the newest info file package this should start working in RetroArch. This might take a day or so, I'm not not sure. Once the update is live you can use the Online Updater -> Update Core Info Files menu to get the new list of supported extensions.
