Provide releases as .sit (Stuffit) files

[aaronk6]

This might very well be me missing something since I’m not really familiar with classic macOS, but I was wondering if it would make sense to also provide Macflim releases as .sit files?

I’m using RaSCSI and didn’t find a way to mount a .dsk image on my vintage Macintosh. So I ended up writing the .dsk file to an actual floppy disk using my 2021 MacBook Pro and an external USB floppy drive. This worked surprisingly well and was a fun experience, but not everybody might have this option.

Again, if there is an easier way to do this that I’m missing, please disregard this!

Thanks 🙂

Fun fact: I used to do that, but stopped as it was a slight pain to create. My workflow to transfer stuff to the Mac is to mount the SD card of the SCSI2SD in minivmac and the .dsk file, and copy things there.

I provided the dsk files as 800K disks so they could also be directly copied to a FloppyEMU SD card.

I will add .sit 1.5 files to the release, for people that have a different workflow in the next version, no problem.

@aaronk6 For what it's worth, you can mount .dsk files using Disk Copy (https://www.macintoshrepository.org/2416-diskcopy-4-2-5-0-5-5-6-0-6-2-6-3-3-6-4-6-5b13-7-0-8-0) if you can transfer it to your old Macintosh via network (I suppose you can as you'd need to do it with .sit too)!
