I would like to boot Mini vMac in fullscreen mode with a predetermined disk. Is this possible? If so how?
Thanks!

Re: Mini vMac Auto Loading Disks & Starting In Fullscreen
"Kinda". Basically you can, but you must recompile the application in order to achieve starting automatically in fullscreen. It's in fact quite easy:
To start with a default disk: Just open the disk with Mini vMac/type in command line the path to MvM followed by the path to the disk. E.g.
"C:\Users\User1\Documents\Mini vMac.exe" "D:\Documents\System6.dsk"
To start in fullscreen by default: You need a compiler. In the mini vmac page you can found a guide on how to do the whole process. It's quite easy. Link: https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/develop.html
Once you get the source through mini vmac, compile it in the respective compiler and you¿ll get an executable for your platform. If you need more help, don't doubt in posting (But please include your platform).

If you don't have a compiler or get easily confused, you can send a request for a custom variation to Paul on gryphel.com: https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/var_dir.html
Paul will then generate an emulator following your specifications and make the download available. For stable versions of the emulator, this service is provided by donation.
