I've also disabled magnification to see if that was the problem, and no, it wasn't. Whenever I go into fullscreen mode, Mini vMac 3.4.1 jumps back out immediately. Both have the advantage of accessing real HFS volumes via USB ports, i.e. I've encountered a bug in the Macintosh II emulation on macOS Sierra. Mini vMac requires a ROM image file to run. It can run old Macintosh software that otherwise couldnt be used on recent machines. Basilisk II also offers similar features, but in my experience is much more difficult to set up, is quite a bit more buggy and hasn't been updated in quite a while. Mini vMac emulates a Macintosh Plus, one of the earliest of Macintosh computers. While Sheepshaver is buggy, it does allow more versatility than Mini vMac at the moment.
#Command line for mini vmac archive
I also use it, running OS 8.1 to open HFS+ images created under Snow Leoapard, into which I have copied compressed archive files, and copy the contents to HFS images which I then use with Mini vMac: the hands down the best vintage Mac emulator out there. This is how I set it up and use it to transfer files between Snow Leopard and an real 128K: Sheepshaver is my Mac transition emulator of choice, to keep everything within a Mac-like environment. Just hope OS X 10.7 doesn't drop HFS read too following their historical pattern in dropping support of MFS with OS 7.6 & 8. It's nice to know that works for now, until Zydeco's solution works more universally to write to HFS images. (That is the command line version of the unarchiver). Indeed not very Mac-like, but I've never had a problem with cmd-line interfaces as long as I have the commands and especially the step-by-step instructions in front of me.
