The (completely self-imposed) constraint regarding file extensions is that I don't want to use them as an indicator of the file type. They are unreliable (people can change them at will) and, once you start supporting formats coming from different systems, they name clash (an ".img" is different...

OMG what an oversight on my part :) Apologies for that. Would you mind zipping up floppy images from a couple of different platforms that support FAT12 and sending them my way? Non-DOS preferably so I can spot the eventual differences. I'll see what I can do ;)

You're in for a treat: https://snowemu.com/

Thank you. It's the work of maxtron95 (https://github.com/maxtron95) who sent it to me out of the blue one day (including the SVG file and everything - I was amazed). Since it's an order of magnitude better than my poor attempt, I had to make use of it.

My goal is to try and support older Macs as long as possible (which I think makes sense for an application aimed at retro enthusiasts). I'm not sure how long the inevitable march of progress (and, let's face it, Apple) will let me do this before my development toolchain no longer lets me do it...

A better interface, a brand new Inspector for your files, support for more formats (NDIF, UCSD Pascal, Atari ST hard drives and more). See your files' data as hex, preview their contents when possible (for example: read your AppleSoft Basic listings directly or check out Atari ST images in...

That's interesting. I'll see if I can strip extended attributes altogether (I don't need them on the disk images DJ creates). I don't know whether I can instruct macOS to not create them afterwards, though. I'll take a look.

Sorry @JDW, I just saw your post. Thanks for the kind words as always :) Strange you're seeing empty contents for the txt and USDZ formats. I'll take a look in a bit (a couple of neat things need finishing up first).

Hi! I'm currently away from the computer and in the middle of nowhere in Normandy (I'm basking in the glory of an anemic 3G network right now) but I'll be back next week and we can take a look at it then if you want (and if the answer above didn't help). The gatekeeper stuff is all a bit of a...

Type / Creator support is indeed a little anemic right now and will be the focus of an upcoming update. People who work on actual, very serious software archiving have been getting in touch with me because DJ is actually useful in their work (if you can believe it). Part of what they'd like to...

NDIF is a tough egg to crack. The compression is part of the issue, but the lack of documentation is a bigger one as far as I am concerned. There's a lot of "feeling things in the dark" experimentation involved. Right now, my path is to start further down the timeline of image formats, with...

Thank you! The continued enthusiasm of the community for my little project is the main driver of my work on DJ. 🤗

I absolutely do NOT see this as a complaint. It's a perfectly legitimate question :) djjr is a good alternative. It can create new images: blanks (like dd does) or Mac devices with a SCSI driver and everything. If you only specify the SCSI ID you want, it will automatically generate a proper...

Sorry to say but it's not my priority right now. Windows is the "OS from work" for me and I don't find developing for it very fun at all. I made the Windows version because I love you all, but it wasn't a very enriching experience for me (sorry). DJ for Windows is mostly about creating disk...

v3.4 is out! See at the top of the thread!
